Friendship

Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship - never.

Friendship is love without his wings

There are three faithful friends - an old wife, an old dog, and ready money

Few delights can equal the presence of one whom we trust utterly.

Talking with a friend is nothing else but thinking aloud

True happiness arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of one's self, and in the next, from the friendship and conversation of a few select companions

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

The greatest sweetener of human life is friendship. To raise this to the highest pitch of enjoyment, is a secret which but few discover.

Our friends don't see our faults, or conceal them, or soften them

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

A happy marriage has in it all the pleasures of friendships, all the enjoyment of sense and reason - and indeed all the sweets of life.

If you wish to succeed in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius

The friendships of the world are oft confederacies in vice, or leagues of pleasures

There is no more lovely, friendly, and charming relationship, communion, or company than a good marriage.

Friendships, like marriages, are dependent on avoiding the unforgivable

The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one

On the death of a friend, we should consider that the fates through confidence have devolved on us the task of a double living, that we have henceforth to fulfill the promise of our friend's life also, in our own, to the world.

There are moments in life when all we can bear is the sense that our friend is near us; our wounds would wince at the touch of consoling words, that would reveal the depths of our pain.

Business, you know, may bring money, but friendship hardly ever does

There are only two people who can tell you the truth about yourself - an enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly
