Best Quotes about Friends and friendship

A good friend is my nearest relation.

Fuller, Thomas

Friendships, in general, are suddenly contracted; and therefore it is no wonder they are easily dissolved.

Addison, Joseph

In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us.

Young, Brigham

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow; Don't walk behind me, I may not lead; Walk beside me, and just be my friend.

Camus, Albert

One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.

Euripides

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

A friend is someone with whom you dare to be yourself.

Crane, Frank

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

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art. It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

Lewis, C. S.

10.

The only way not to break a friendship is not to drop it.

Holz, Julie

11.

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

Richter, Jean Paul

12.

Friendship always benefits; love sometimes injures.

Seneca

13.

There is no greater treasure than the respect and love of a true friend.

14.

When all is said and done, friendship is the only trustworthy fabric of the affections. So-called love is a delirious inhuman state of mind: when hot it substitutes indulgence for fair play; when cold it is cruel, but friendship is warmth in cold, firm ground in a bog.

Franklin, Miles

15.

The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own.

Disraeli, Benjamin

16.

There are persons who cannot make friends. Who are they? Those who cannot be friends. It is not the want of understanding or good nature, of entertaining or useful qualities, that you complain of: on the contrary, they have probably many points of attraction; but they have one that neutralizes all these --they care nothing about you, and are neither the better nor worse for what you think of them. They manifest no joy at your approach; and when you leave them, it is with a feeling that they can do just as well without you. This is not sullenness, nor indifference, nor absence of mind; but they are intent solely on their own thoughts, and you are merely one of the subjects they exercise them upon. They live in society as in a solitude.

Hazlitt, William

17.

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.

18.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

19.

A day for toil, an hour for sport, but for a friend is life too short.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo

20.

Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together.

Wilson, Woodrow T.

21.

No young man starting in life could have better capital than plenty of friends. They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be. Friends of the right sort will help him more -- to be happy and successful -- than much money...

Marden, Orison Swett

22.

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!
