Good friends have a way of bringing out the best in you
By their caring and the interest that they take in all you do.
Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces
Better to have one friend of great value, than many friends who were good for nothing.
I've always said that in politics, your enemies can't hurt you, but your friends will kill you.
The friendship between a man and a woman which does not lead to marriage or desire for marriage may be a life long experience of the greatest value to themselves and to all their circle of acquaintance and of activity; but for this type of friendship both a rare man and a rare woman are needed. Perhaps it should be added that either the man or the woman thus deeply bound in lifelong friendship who seeks marriage must find a still rarer man or woman to wed, to make such a three cornered comradeship a permanent success.
A brief candle,both ends burning
An endless mile, a bus wheel turning
A friend to share the lonesome times
A handshake and a sip of wine
So say it loud and let it ring
We are all a part of everything
The future, present and the past
Fly on proud bird
You're free at last
Silence is the true friend that never betrays.
To cement a new friendship, especially between foreigners or persons of a different social world, a spark with which both were secretly charged must fly from person to person, and cut across the accidents of place and time.
One must be fond of people and trust them if one is not to make a mess of life
It is difficult to say who do you the most mischief: enemies with the worst intentions or friends with the best
I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you -- Nobody -- too?
Then there's a pair of us?
Don't tell! they'd advertise -- you know!
It is not so much our friends' help that helps us as the confident knowledge that they will help us.
We need not think alike to love alike.
Go cherish your soul; express companions; set your habits to a life of solitude; then will the faculties rise fair and full within.
Friends are generally of the same sex, for when men and women agree, it is only in the conclusions; their reasons are always different.
Great Spirit, grant that I may not criticize my neighbor until I have walked a mile in his moccasins.
Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.
He that is a friend to himself, know; he is a friend to all.
True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.
It is one of the severest tests of friendship to tell your friend his faults. So to love a man that you cannot bear to see a stain upon him, and to speak painful truth through loving words, that is friendship.
Business, you know, may bring money, but friendship hardly ever does.
If you want to be free, there is but one way; it is to guarantee an equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors. There is no other.
Friendship is the finest balm for the pangs of despised love.

Quotes with Keyword Friendship Friendship
Alone, we slip into a self reinforcing haze. A place of isolation in which the only voice we hear is our own, and we become more and more convinced that our world view, what we see, is the only one that makes sense, the only one that is correct. Living in our own heads we build empires, cast down the unworthy, glory in our intellect. We become a floating island of ego, living within ourselves and living only for ourselves. Other people are the only antidote to this. Friendship offers not only companionship, love, and fun, but it offers a reflector as well. Our ideas, prejudices, hatreds, misconceptions and brilliant notions bounce off another human being and are reflected back. We are forced to face ideas other than our own. Our mental lives become less rigid, we gain the ability to grow, to change our minds and to understand the perspectives of others. |
