Meaningful Quotes about Friendship
Friendship improves happiness and abates misery,
by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful, where your own self-love might impair your judgment.—Seneca.
Give us a man, young or old, high or low, on whom we know we can thoroughly depend, who will stand firm when others fail; the friend faithful and true, the adviser honest and fearless, the adversary just and chivalrous,—in such a one there is a fragment of the Rock of Ages.—Dean Stanley.
Friendship is the only thing in the world
concerning the usefulness of which all mankind are agreed.—Cicero.
The man that hails you Tom or Jack,
And proves by thumping on your back
His sense of your great merit,
Is such a friend, that one had need
Be very much his friend indeed
To pardon or to bear it.
—Cowper.
He is a friend indeed who proves himself a friend in need.—Plautus.
Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not.—Proverbs 27:10.

enough to tell him disagreeable truths.—Lytton.
A friendship that makes the least noise is very often the most useful;
for which reason I should prefer a prudent friend to a zealous
one.—Addison.
A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that
actions, not words, are the true criterion of the attachment of friends;
and that the most liberal professions of good-will are very far from
being the surest marks of it.—George Washington.
No friend's a friend till he shall prove a friend.—Beaumont and
Fletcher.
The qualities of your friends will be those of your enemies,—cold
friends, cold enemies; half friends, half enemies; fervid enemies, warm
friends.—Lavater.
Purchase no friends by gifts; when thou ceasest to give such will cease
to love.—Fuller.

worth dying for.—Henry Home.

upon a stock of known and reciprocal merit.—Chesterfield.
There is nothing more becoming any wise man, than to make choice of
friends, for by them thou shalt be judged what thou art: let them
therefore be wise and virtuous, and none of those that follow thee for
gain; but make election rather of thy betters, than thy inferiors.—Sir
Walter Raleigh.
'Tis thus that on the choice of friends
Our good or evil name depends.
—Gay
