"Friendship is like fine sands in the palms of your hands, it slips away unknowingly and quietly. And when you try to grab hold the 2nd time, it never feels the same again. """Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend."
"Our faith and our friendships are not shattered by one big act, but by many small neglects."
"He who has a thousand friendsHas not a friend to spare,While he who has one enemyShall meet him everywhere."
"A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same."
"True friends stab you in the front."
"True friendship is a plant of slow grow, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation."
"The road to a friend's house is never long."
"A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often - just to save it from drying out completely.".
Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.
Those truly linked don't need correspondence. When they meet again after many years apart, Their friendship is as true as ever.
It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.
It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.
