Between friends there is no need of justice.

Rashness is the faithful, but unhappy parent of misfortune.

One who knows how to show and to accept kindness will be a friend better than any possession.

Man's best support is a very dear friend.

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

The family is one of nature's masterpieces.

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

Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.

The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.

If you have a candle, the light won't glow any dimmer if I light yours off of mine.

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

As in the case of wines that improve with age, the oldest friendships ought to be the most delightful.

To throw away an honest friend is, as it were, to throw your life away

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

No good friends. No bad friends. Only people you want, need to be with; people who build their houses in your heart.

Our most intimate friend is not he to whom we show the worst, but the best of our nature.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

There is no surer foundation for a beautiful friendship than a mutual taste in literature.

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.

The relationship between husband and wife should be one of closest friends.

Marriage has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery.
