We make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next-door neighbour.

I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft...

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.

Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice.

The family is one of nature's masterpieces.

Children make your life important.

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

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

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.

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

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

A good friend will always stab you in the front.

We should behave to our friends as we would wish our friends to behave to us.

Friendship makes prosperity more brilliant, and lightens adversity by dividing and sharing it.

Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

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

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

Friends are as companions on a journey, who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier life.

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

I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.
