Quote

Age does not make us childish, as some say; it finds us true children.

Friends need not agree in everything or go always together, or have no comparable other friendships of the same intimacy.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

Young people want you to be real with them.

If I'm among my boys or people I've grown up with, I can be immature.

If we would build on a sure foundation in friendship, we must love friends for their sake rather than for our own.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

The essence of true friendship is to make allowance for another's little lapses.

We've become much more casual and much more relaxed in social interactions, where there was a formality and maybe a kind of respect at that time that doesn't exist now.

I think there's a really mature side of me that can deal with problems - but when I'm with my friends, I get to act much more kidlike.
