People are really happier with friends than they are with their families or their spouse or their child.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You can't be happy if you're not tolerably happy with yourself. The addition of friends adds immeasurably to life.
Family and friendships are two of the greatest facilitators of happiness.
Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife.
Marriage is the highest state of friendship. If happy, it lessens our cares by dividing them, at the same time that it doubles our pleasures by mutual participation.
True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in the worth and choice.
Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.
Happiness is understanding that friendship is more precious than mere things, more precious than getting your own way, more precious than being in situations where true principles are not at stake.
I look at life and I see some very happy relationships, but I also see the vast majority as not being that happy.
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.
