Quote

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

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.

Friendship always benefits; love sometimes injures.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

Friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be increased by short intermissions.

Love is blind; friendship closes its eyes.

Love is friendship set on fire.

Friendships begun in this world will be taken up again, never to be broken off.

Friendship has its illusions no less than love.
