FRIENDS QUOTES

It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.

Behavior alone it is that creates friends and foes

He who befriends a man whose conduct is vicious, whose vision impure, and who is notoriously crooked, is rapidly ruined.

He who has wealth has friends and relations; he alone survives and is respected as a man.

Learning is a friend on the journey; a wife in the house; medicine in sickness; and religious merit is the only friend after death.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

Better make a weak man your enemy than your friend.

A faithful friend is a strong defense; and he that hath found him hath found a treasure.

Good books, like good friends, are few and chosen; the more select, the more enjoyable.

Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.
