Quote

Some of the choicest blessings of my life have been the close friendships I have experienced over the years. Often, these friendships have been forged in the fires of shared experience.

True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island... to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing.

True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

People come in and out of our lives, and the true test of friendship is whether you can pick back up right where you left off the last time you saw each other.

Rare as is true love, true friendship is rarer.

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.

Friendship has its illusions no less than love.

I've got many close friends, but there's an awful lot about friendship that is not demonstrative in my case.
