I define friendship as a bond that transcends all barriers. When you are ready to expect anything and everything from friends, good, bad or ugly... that's what I call true friendship.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think for a lot of people, friendship is a relationship that gets devalued once they move on to what people consider to be more important relationships: once you find a partner or when you have kids.
The strong bond of friendship is not always a balanced equation; friendship is not always about giving and taking in equal shares. Instead, friendship is grounded in a feeling that you know exactly who will be there for you when you need something, no matter what or when.
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.
It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.
Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.
The essence of true friendship is to make allowance for another's little lapses.
Friendship is something that is cultivated.
Friendship is a disinterested commerce between equals; love, an abject intercourse between tyrants and slaves.
Friendship is something that creates equality and mutuality, not a reward for finding equality or a way of intensifying existing mutuality.
