People are like dirt. They can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die.

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

Friends are nothing but a known enemy

Friendship is nothing else than an accord in all things, human and divine, conjoined with mutual goodwill and affection.

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

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

Well, it's 1 a.m. Better go home and spend some quality time with the kids.

Adversity tests the sincerity of friends.

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

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding.

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

The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.

Real friends stab you in the front.

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

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still.

People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.

Anybody amuses me for once. A new acquaintance is like a new book. I prefer it, even if bad, to a classic.

A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy. Let a man be one thing or the other, and we then know how to meet him.

I get by with a little help from my friends.
