Best Quotes about Friends and friendship

1.
Keep out of the suction caused by those who drift backwards.
Piper, E. K.

2.
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

3.
So long as we are loved by others I should say that we are almost indispensable; and no man is useless while he has a friend.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

4.
Friendship is a priceless treasure never to be bought or sold -- it can only be cherished.

5.
You can always tell a real friend; when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.
Peter, Laurence J.

6.
Human beings are born into this little span of life of which the best thing is its friendship and intimacies, and soon their places will know them no more, and yet they leave their friendships and intimacies with no cultivation, to grow as they will by the roadside, expecting them to keep by force of inertia.
James, William

7.
If you want to make a dangerous man your friend, let him do you a favor.
Lawes, Lewis E.

8.
Friendship is a pretty full-time occupation if you really are friendly with somebody. You can't have too many friends because then you're just not really friends.
Capote, Truman

9.
A friend is someone who doesn't like the same people you do.
Proverb

10.

The greatest sweetener of human life is Friendship. To raise this to the highest pitch of enjoyment, is a secret which but few discover.
Addison, Joseph

13.
Many a time from a bad beginning great friendships have sprung up.
Terence

14.
There are few things in which we deceive ourselves more than in the esteem we profess to entertain for our friends. It is little better than a piece of quackery. The truth is, we think of them as we please --that is, as they please or displease us.
Hazlitt, William

15.
Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.
Byrnes, James F.

16.
Verily, great grace may go with a little gift; and precious are all things that come from a friend.
Theocritus

17.
Old friendships are like meats served up repeatedly, cold, comfortless, and distasteful. The stomach turns against them.
Hazlitt, William

18.
Friends and acquaintances are the surest passport to fortune.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

19.
To each one of us friendship has a different meaning. For all of us it is a gift. Friendship needs to be cherished and nurtured. It needs to be cultivated on a daily basis. Then shall it germinate and yield its fruit.

20.
Your friends will know you better in the first minute they meet you than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years.
Bach, Richard

21.
Never exaggerate your faults, your friends will attend to that.
Edwards, Robert C.

22.
Friendship is almost always the union of a part of one mind with the part of another; people are friends in spots.
Santayana, George

23.
If two friends ask you to judge a dispute, don't accept, because you will lose one friend; on the other hand, if two strangers come with the same request, accept because you will gain one friend.
Augustine, St.

24.
A friend walks in when everyone else walks out

25.
Friendship is one mind in two bodies.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)

Without friends, no one would want to live, even if he had all other goods.
Aristotle

27.
A friend you have to buy won't be worth what you pay for him.
Prentice, George D.

28.
Don't flatter yourself that friendship authorizes you to say disagreeable things to your intimates. The nearer you come into relation with a person, the more necessary do tact and courtesy become.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

29.
A friend is someone you can be alone with and have nothing to do and not be able to think of anything to say and be comfortable in the silence.
Condie, Sheryl

30.
Many merry Christmases, friendships, great accumulation of cheerful recollections, affection on earth, and Heaven at last for all of us.
Dickens, Charles

31.
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

32.
In a friend you find a second self.
Norton, Isabelle

33.
A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care to acquire.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

34.
If you have no friends to share or rejoice in your success in life -- if you cannot look back to those whom you owe gratitude, or forward to those to whom you ought to afford protection, still it is no less incumbent on you to move steadily in the path of duty; for your active excretions are due not only to society; but in humble gratitude to the Being who made you a member of it, with powers to save yourself and others.
Scott, Sir Walter

35.
In the progress of personality, first comes a declaration of independence, then a recognition of interdependence.
Dyke, Henry Van

36.
I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship.
Aretino, Pietro

When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.
Johnson, Earvin ''Magic''

38.
True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.
Gentry, David Tyson

39.
The book is closed, the year is done, The pages full of tasks begun. A little joy, a little care, Along with dreams, are written there. This new day brings another year, Renewing hope, dispelling fear. And we may find before the end, A deep content, another friend.
Ward, Arch

A puppy plays with every pup he meets, but an old dog has few associates.
Billings, Josh

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
Gibran, Kahlil

Do not make best friends with a melancholy sad soul. They always are heavily loaded, and you must bear half.
