Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?
Abraham Lincoln
No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.
Alice Walker
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
Charles W Eliot 1834
What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies.
Aristotle
Don't sacrifice your life to work and ideals. The most important things in life are human relations. I found that out too late.

Freindship consists in forgetting what one gives, and remembering what one receives.
Alexandre Dumas 1803
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
Charlie Daniels
Go cherish your soul; express companions; set your habits to a life of solitude; then will the faculties rise fair and full within.
Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803
It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.
William Blake
It seems to me that trying to live without friends is like milking a bear to get cream for your morning coffee. It is a whole lot of trouble, and then not worth much after you get it.
Zora Neale Hurston
