You can't be happy if you're not tolerably happy with yourself. The addition of friends adds immeasurably to life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
People are really happier with friends than they are with their families or their spouse or their child.
I have many good friends, but I tend to keep to myself anyway. It's odd, doing things and having no one to share them with.
True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in the worth and choice.
The people in my life are friends I have by choice. I've made a conscious effort to have them in life. I only have the time and energy for so many people, which has cut down my friend group to a handful, but I'm so much happier with fewer good people, who really do know me.
I've grown up a lot, and I've realized that what I need to make myself happy is the people around you.
I'm a happy person, and I want everybody else to be happy. Nothing wrong with that.
If you want to be happy, make others happy!
To want friendship is a great fault. Friendship ought to be a gratuitous joy, like the joys afforded by art or life.
I have very few friends. I have a handful of close friends, and I have my family, and I haven't known life to be any happier.
No man can be happy without a friend, nor be sure of his friend till he is unhappy.
