Friends and friendship

We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over. So in a series of kindness there is, at last, one which makes the heart run over.
- Boswell, James

Best Quotes about Friends and friendship

1.
Two friendships in two breasts requires The same aversions and desires.
Swift, Jonathan

2.
Among Life's precious jewels, Genuine and rare, The one that we call friendship Has worth beyond compare.

3.
Friendship is to be purchased only by friendship. A man may have authority over others, but he can never have their hearts but by giving his own.
Wilson, Thomas

4.
In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other's affairs, who come out together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society. Against them the Couple of Ehepaar is helpless and Man in their eyes but a biological interlude.
Connolly, Cyril

5.
With true friends... even water drunk together is sweet enough.
Proverb, Chinese

6.
A faithful friend is a strong defense: and he that hath found one hath found a treasure.
Bible

7.
May I always be worth of my friends.

8.
Ones oldest friend is the best.
Plautus, Titus Maccius

9.
The best way to keep your friends is not to give them away.
Mizner, Wilson

10.
There is an electricity about a friendship relationship. We are both more relaxed and more sensitive, more creative and more reflective, more energetic and more casual, more excited and more serene. It is as though when we come in contact with our friend we enter into a different environment. ANDREW M. GREELEY
Greeley, Andrew M.

11.
Love is blind; friendship closes its eyes.

12.
The gift of friendship is a wondrous thing with the joys and happiness good friends bring.

13.
Love Him, and keep Him for thy Friend, who, when all go away, will not forsake thee, nor suffer thee to perish at the last.
Kempis, Thomas

14.
A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
Winchell, Walter

15.
For the friendship of two, the patience of one is required.
Proverb, Indian

16.
Give me work to do, Give me health, Give me joy in simple things, Give me an eye for beauty, A tongue for truth, A heart that loves, A mind that reasons, A sympathy that understands. Give me neither malice nor envy, But a true kindness And a noble common sense. At the close of each day Give me a book And a friend with whom I can be silent.
Frazier, S. M.

17.
It takes two people to ruin a perfectly good day. First a person who says something downright nasty about you, and second, a dear friend who makes sure you hear about it immediately.

18.
Every friend is to the other a sun, and a sunflower also. He attracts and follows.
Richter, Jean Paul

19.
I hate it in friends when they come too late to help.
Euripides

20.
Friends show their love in times of trouble...
Euripides

21.
My friends, there are no friends.
Chanel, Coco

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.
Sallust

Those who forgets their friends to follow those of a higher status are truly snobs.
Thackeray, William M.

The first day one is a guest, the second a burden, and the third a pest.
La Bruyere, Jean De

26.
The good fellow to everyone is a good friend to no one.
Proverb, Jewish

27.
A friend is long sought, hardly found, and with difficulty kept.
Jerome, St.

28.
I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.
Mansfield, Katherine

29.
Who ceases to be a friend never was one.
Proverb, Greek

30.
Without friends the world is but a wilderness. There is no man that imparteth his joys to his friends, but he joyeth the more; and no man that imparteth his grieves to his friend, but he grieveth the less.
Bacon, Francis

31.
Never do a wrong thing to make a friend or to keep one.
Lee, Robert E.

32.
Friendship is a comforting smile, A familiar voice that warms the heart, and the freedom to be the person God intended.

33.
The mind is lowered through association with inferiors. With equals it attains equality; and with superiors, superiority.
Hitopadesa

34.
Do not choose for your friends and familiar acquaintance those that are of an estate or quality too much above yours...You will hereby accustom yourselves to live after their rate in clothes, in habit, and in expenses, whereby you will learn a fashion and rank of life above your degree and estate, which will in the end be your undoing.
Hale, Matthew

35.
Without friends no one would choose to live.
Aristotle

36.
Friendship is held to be the severest test of character. It is easy, we think, to be loyal to a family and clan, whose blood is in your own veins. Love between a man and a woman is founded on the mating instinct and is not free from desire and self-seeking. But to have a friend and to be true under any and all trials is the mark of a man!
Eastman, Charles Alexander

37.
Tell me who's your friend and I'll tell you who you are.
Proverb, Russian

38.
But just as delicate fare does not stop you from craving for saveloys, so tried and exquisite friendship does not take away your taste for something new and dubious.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

39.
Who finds a faithful friend, finds a treasure.
Saying, Jewish

40.
An open foe may prove a curse, but a pretended friend is worse.
Gay, John

41.
Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.
Hsieh, Tehyi

42.
That is what friendship means. Sharing the prejudice of experience.
Bukowski, Charles

43.
Life has no blessing like a prudent friend.
Euripides

44.
Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.
Gracian, Baltasar

45.
We cherish our friends not for their ability to amuse us, but for our ability to amuse them.
Waugh, Evelyn

46.
Friends will keep you sane, Love could fill your heart, A lover can warm your bed, But lonely is the soul without a mate.
Pratt, David

47.
You may poke a man's fire after you've known him for seven years.
Proverb, English

48.
We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over. So in a series of kindness there is, at last, one which makes the heart run over.
Boswell, James

49.
Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend -- or a meaningful day.
Dalai Lama

50.
A friend is a present you give to yourself.
Stevenson, Robert Louis
