Marden, Orison Swett

11.
Friendship is one mind in two bodies.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)

Proverb, Arabian

Addison, Joseph

Breton, Nicholas

22.
Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.
Aristotle

23.
The only service a friend can really render is to keep up your courage by holding up to you a mirror in which you can see a noble image of yourself.
Shaw, George Bernard

24.
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

25.
If a man urge me to tell wherefore I loved him, I feel it cannot be expressed but by answering: Because it was he, because it was myself.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

26.
Friendship is like vitamins, we supplement each other's minimum daily requirements

27.
For the friendship of two, the patience of one is required.
Proverb, Indian

28.
Thank You Friend I never came to you, my friend, and went away without some new enrichment of the heart; More faith and less of doubt, more courage in the days ahead. And often in great need coming to you, I went away comforted indeed. How can I find the shining word, the glowing phrase that tells all that your love has meant to me, all that your friendship spells? There is no word, no phrase for you on whom I so depend. All I can say to you is this, God bless you precious friend.
Crowell, Grace Noll

29.
Of all things which wisdom provides to make life entirely happy, much the greatest is the possession of friendship.
Epicurus

30.
Every deed and every relationship is surrounded by an atmosphere of silence. Friendship needs no words -- it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.
Hammarskjold, Dag

31.
I can't forgive my friends for dying; I don't find these vanishing acts of theirs at all amusing.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

32.
Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.
Byrnes, James F.

33.
A ray of sunshine, a balmy breeze Are a gift from God above, And He also gives us faithful friends. To warm our hearts with love.

34.
... I remember you and recall you without effort, without exercise of will; that is, by natural impulse, indicated by a sense of duty, or of obligation. And that, I take it, is the only sort of remembering worth the having. When we think of friends, and call their faces out of the shadows, and their voices out of the echoes that faint along the corridors of memory, and do it without knowing why save that we love to do it, we content ourselves that friendship is a Reality, and not a Fancy -- that it is built upon a rock, and not upon the sands that dissolve away with the ebbing tides and carry their monuments with them.
Fairbanks, Douglas

35.
One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.
Euripides

36.
If you have one true friend you have more than your share.
Fuller, Thomas

37.
Being taken for granted can be a compliment. It means you've become a comfortable, trusted element in another person's life.
Brothers, Dr. Joyce

38.
The ideal friendship is to feel as one while remaining two.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie

39.
I shot an arrow into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For so swiftly it flew, the sight Could not follow it in its flight. I breathed a song into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For, who has sight so keen and strong That it can follow the flight of song? Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroken; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

40.
Many merry Christmases, friendships, great accumulation of cheerful recollections, affection on earth, and Heaven at last for all of us.
Dickens, Charles

41.
The lonely one offers his hand too quickly to whomever he encounters.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

42.
I do not believe that friends are necessarily the people you like best, they are merely the people who got there first.
Ustinov, Peter

43.
Since it has been my lot to find, at every parting of the road, the helping hand of comrade kind to help me with my heavy load, And since I have no gold to give and love alone must make amends, my humble prayer is, while I live -- God, make me worthy of my friends.

44.
There can be no friendship where there is no freedom. Friendship loves a free air, and will not be fenced up in straight and narrow enclosures.
Penn, William

45.
What sweetness is left in life, if you take away friendship? Robbing life of friendship is like robbing the world of the sun. A true friend is more to be esteemed than kinsfolk.
Cicero, Marcus T.

46.
I have a friend who tells a tale With statements parenthetical; To start at the beginning must To her seem quite heretical; For her accounts of happenings Are full of disconnection s; She starts them in the middle, And proceeds in all directions.
Stux, Erica H.

47.
It is well, when judging a friend, to remember that he is judging you with the same godlike and superior impartiality.
Bennett, Arnold

48.
Be slow in choosing a friend, but slower in changing him.
Proverb

49.
A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked.
Meltzer, Bernard

50.
Friendship is genuine when two friends can enjoy each others company without speaking a word to one another.
Ebers, George
