There is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, however dear and beloved, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one's self, the very meaning of one's soul.
My friend is he who will tell me my faults in private.
The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.
Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh?" he whispered. "Yes, Piglet?" "Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's hand. "I just wanted to be sure of you.
We went with the St. Lawrence Experience, which is run by Joe Babbitt, who is a close friend now. We went out there for 10 days and we had the best week of our lives, and we've been going back since. We've been back three times now.
Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
Prosperity is no just scale; adversity is the only balance to weigh friends.

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and a richness to life that nothing else can bring.
We oppose the reactionary policies of the U. S. government but we do not oppose the American people. We want to have many good friends in the United States.
True friends never apart maybe in distance but never in heart
True love doesn't come to you it has to be inside you.
Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.
Even the utmost good-will and harmony and practical kindness are not sufficient for Friendship, for Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody. We do not wish for Friends to feed and clothe our bodies-neighbors are kind enough for that-but to do the like office to our spirits.
Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment.
Make as many friends as you can, but don't build your life on them alone. It's an unstable foundation.
When I say that I love you, I don't say it out of habit or to make conversation. I say it to remind you that you're the best thing that's ever happened to me.
You are not very good if you are not better than your best friends imagine you to be.
Are we not like two volumes of one book?
