Best Quotes about Friends and friendship

1.
... 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

2.
Two friendships in two breasts requires The same aversions and desires.
Swift, Jonathan

3.
A good friend who points out mistakes and imperfections and rebukes evil is to be respected as if he reveals a secret of hidden treasure.
Buddha

4.
What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement, a mutual adjustment of interests, an interchange of services given and received; it is, in sum, simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

5.
Friendship is a comforting smile, A familiar voice that warms the heart, and the freedom to be the person God intended.

Love demands infinitely less than friendship.

In the misfortunes of our best friends we always find something not altogether displeasing to us.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

12.
Only your real friends will tell you when your face is dirty.

However much we guard ourselves against it, we tend to shape ourselves in the image others have of us. It is not so much the example of others we imitate, as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.
Hoffer, Eric

17.
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

18.
Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.
Gracian, Baltasar

Belloc, Hilaire

Bacon, Francis

45.
Friendship Never explain -- your friends do not need it, and your enemies will not believe it anyway. A real friend never gets in your way, unless you happen to be on the way down. A friend is someone you can do nothing with and enjoy it. However much we guard ourselves against it, we tend to shape ourselves in the image others have of us. It is not so much the example of others we imitate, as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.
Hoffer, Eric

Lincoln, Abraham

50.
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
