Friendship is a priceless gift, that cannot be bought or sold. But it's value is far greater than a mountain made of gold. For gold is cold and lifeless, it can neither see nor hear. And in time of trouble, it is powerless to cheer. So when you ask God for a gift, be thankful if he sends not diamonds, pearls or riches, but the love of real true friends.
They who sow courtesy reap friendship, and they who plant kindness gather love.
In real life, shouldn't a wedding be an awesome party you throw with your great pal, in the presence of a bunch of your other friends? A great day, for sure, but not the beginning and certainly not the end of your friendship with a person you can't wait to talk about gardening with the for the next forty years.
A man's social and spiritual discipline must answer to his corporeal. He must lean on a friend who has a hard breast, as he wouldlie on a hard bed. He must drink cold water for his only beverage. So he must not hear sweetened and colored words, but pure and refreshing truths. He must daily bathe in truth cold as spring water, not warmed by the sympathy of friends.
Oh, what is the matter with poor Puggy-Wug? Pet him and kiss him and give him a hug. Run and fetch him a suitable drug. Wrap him up tenderly all in a rug. That is the way to cure Puggy-Wug.

I think in friendship, you want to be there for your friend, and sometimes you just don't know what to do or the relationship you have with them is not clear enough for you to know what to do.
One can find traces of every life in each life.
We need old friends to help us grow old and new friends to help us stay young.
What joy is better than news of friends?
Pythagoras asks that we not let a friend go lightly, for whatever reason. Instead, we should stay with a friend as long as we can, until we're compelled to abandon him completely against our will. It's a serious thing to toss away money, but to cast aside a person is even more serious. Nothing in human life is more rarely found, nothing more dearly possessed. No loss is more chilling or more dangerous than that of a friend.
Write in the sand the flaws of your friend.
Many women. . . have buoyed me up in times of weariness and stress. Each friend was important. . . Their words have seasoned my life. Influence, just like salt shaken out, is hard to see, but its flavor is hard to miss.
The path of social advancement is, and must be, strewn with broken friendships.
There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.
Remembering. Forgetting. I'm not sure which is worse.
ANTIPATHY, n. The sentiment inspired by one's friend's friend.
Friendship is the union of spirits.
