Best Quotes about Friends and friendship
A day for toil, an hour for sport, but for a friend is life too short.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Never do a wrong thing to make a friend or to keep one.
Lee, Robert E.
Life is nothing without friendship.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Ones oldest friend is the best.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
Friendship is essentially a partnership.
Aristotle
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
Luther, Martin
The only way not to break a friendship is not to drop it.
Holz, Julie
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
Many a time from a bad beginning great friendships have sprung up.
Terence
Friendship should be a responsibility, never an opportunity.
Only solitary men know the full joys of friendship. Others have their family --but to a solitary and an exile his friends are everything.
Cather, Willa
Do not make best friends with a melancholy sad soul. They always are heavily loaded, and you must bear half.
FeNelon, Francois
Often, I look out the window and wait. I see her as she comes and goes, to visit with everyone-it seems but me. I know that sometimes I'm not as friendly as I should be. But I'm scared- that people won't like me. So I hide in my shell. And talk to know one. But still... I wish they would notice that I am here. I need them. Please, somebody talk to me. I need a friend.
Think where man's glory most begins and ends, And say my glory was I had such friends.
Yeats, William Butler
Friendship should be more than biting time can sever.
Eliot, T. S.
The difficulty is not that great to die for a friend, the hard part is finding a friend worth dying for.
Home, Henry
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
A mistress never is nor can be a friend. While you agree, you are lovers; and when it is over, anything but friends.
Byron, Lord
Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.
Gracian, Baltasar
We do not so much need the help of our friends as the confidence of their help in need.
Epicurus
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
A man must eat a peck of salt with his friend, before he knows him.
Cervantes, Miguel De
We cherish our friends not for their ability to amuse us, but for our ability to amuse them.
Waugh, Evelyn
Friendship is a disinterested commerce between equals; love, an abject intercourse between tyrants and slaves.
Goldsmith, Oliver
If you go looking for a friend, you're going to find they're very scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you'll find them everywhere.
Ziglar, Zig
A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
Winchell, Walter
A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses. [Proverbs 27:19]
Bible
I like a friend the better for having faults that one can talk about.
Hazlitt, William
I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.
Mansfield, Katherine
To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.
Sallust
Can miles truly separate us from friends? If we want to be with someone we love, aren't we already there?
Bach, Richard
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
God gives us our relatives -- thank God we can choose our friends.
Mumford, Ethel Watts
It's funny, isn't it? How your best friend can just blow up like that?
Python, Monty
A friend is long sought, hardly found, and with difficulty kept.
Jerome, St.
You can't eat your friends and have them too.
Schulberg, Budd
Friends show their love in times of trouble...
Euripides
A sympathetic friend can be quite as dear as a brother.
Homer
As the yellow gold is tried in fire, so the faith of friendship must be seen in adversity.
Ovid
The proper office of a friend is to side with you when you are in the wrong. Nearly anybody will side with you when you are in the right.
Notebook
An open foe may prove a curse, but a pretended friend is worse.
Gay, John
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
Without friends, no one would want to live, even if he had all other goods.
Aristotle
The ideal friendship is to feel as one while remaining two.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie
If you want to make a dangerous man your friend, let him do you a favor.
Lawes, Lewis E.
The first day one is a guest, the second a burden, and the third a pest.
La Bruyere, Jean De
The good fellow to everyone is a good friend to no one.
Proverb, Jewish
And the joy of it all; when we count it all up; is found in the making of friends.
Tell me who's your friend and I'll tell you who you are.
Proverb, Russian
We know our friends by their defects rather than their merits.
Maugham, W. Somerset
