Woman is not made to be the admiration of all, but the happiness of one.

The family is one of nature's masterpieces.

Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.

The trouble is that people seem to expect happiness in life. I can't imagine why; but they do. They are unhappy before they marry, and they imagine to themselves that the reason of their unhappiness will be removed when they are married. When it isn't they blame the other person, which is clearly absurd. I believe that is what generally starts the trouble.

As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.

Misfortune shows those who are not really friends.

A blow from your friend is better than a kiss from your enemy.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

A friend is one before whom I may think aloud.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back

A friend is, as it were, a second self.

It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.

I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don't believe I deserved my friends.

A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have.

You don't live in a world all alone. Your brothers are here too.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Constant use had not worn ragged the fabric of their friendship.

If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.
