In friends.h.i.+p your heart is like a bell struck every time your friend is in trouble.
_Henry Ward Beecher_
Let me be alone to the end of the world, rather than that my friend should overstep by a word or a look his real sympathy.
_Emerson_
The vital air of friends.h.i.+p is composed of confidence.
_Joseph Roux_
Friends.h.i.+p closes its eyes rather than see the moon eclipst; while malice denies that it is ever at the full.
_J. C. and A. W. Hare_
The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend.
_Henry D. Th.o.r.eau_
It is a proof of a man's fitness for friends.h.i.+p that he is able to do without that which is cheap and pa.s.sionate. A true friends.h.i.+p is as wise as it is tender.
_Henry D. Th.o.r.eau_
A foe to G.o.d was ne'er true friend to man, Some sinister intent taints all he does.
_Young_
The silence of a friend commonly amounts to treachery. His not daring to say anything in our behalf implies a tacit censure.
_Hazlitt_
Think not thy friend one who in fortune's hour Boasts of his friends.h.i.+p and fraternity.
Him I call friend who sums up all his power To aid thee in distress and misery.
_Saadi_
Constancy of Friends.h.i.+p
A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
_Proverbs_ xvii. 17
Oh happy days, oh early friends, How Life since then hath lost its flowers!
But yet--tho' Time _some_ foliage rends, The stem, the Friends.h.i.+p, still is ours; And long may it endure, as green And fresh as it hath always been!
_Thomas Moore_
A true friend is for ever a friend.
_George MacDonald_
Your friend has never really loved you, never quite trusted you, who lightly lets himself think that you have drifted away from him.
_Bishop Thorold_
There are three faithful friends--an old wife, an old dog, and ready money.
_Benjamin Franklin_
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And days o' lang syne?
_Burns_
There is no treasure the which may be compared unto a faithful friend; Gold soone decayeth, and worldly wealth consumeth and wasteth in the winde: But love once planted in a perfect and pure minde endureth weale or woe; The frownes of fortune, come they never so unkinde, cannot the same overthrowe.
_Roxburghe Ballads_
I am not of that feather to shake off My friend when he must need me.
_Shakespeare_
The faults of our friends ought never to anger us so far as to give an advantage to our enemies.
_Lord Chesterfield_
Love is and was my Lord and King, And in his presence I attend To hear the tidings of my friend, Which every hour his couriers bring.
_Tennyson_
So Life's year begins and closes; Days, though short'ning, still can s.h.i.+ne; What though youth gave love and roses, Age still leaves us friends and wine.
_Thomas Moore_
