Every friend of freedom must be as revolted as I am by the prospect of turning the United States into an armed camp, by the vision of jails filled with casual drug users and of an army of enforcers empowered to invade the liberty of citizens on slight evidence.

Every gift from a friend is a wish for your happiness...

Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

Every man passes his life in the search after friendship.

Every man should keep a fair-sized cemetery in which to bury the faults of his Friends.

Every man, however wise, needs the advice of some sagacious friend in the affairs of life.

Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

Friends are those rare people who ask how we are and then wait to hear the answer.

Friends love misery, in fact. Sometimes, especially if we are too lucky or too successful or too pretty, our misery is the only thing that endears us to our Friends.

Friends make pretence of following to the grave but before one is in it, their minds are turned and making the best of their way back to life and living people and things they understand.

Friends may come and go, but enemies accumulate.

Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joys, and dividing our grief.

Friendship increases in visiting friends, but in visiting them seldom.

Friendship is a marriage wit out sex!

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.

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.

One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible. Friendship needs a certain parallelism of life, a community of thought, a rivalry of aim.

Friendship is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

Friendship is Love without his wings!

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
