Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.
A true friend is someone who sees the pain in your eyes while everyone else believes the smile on your face.
Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken, it can rarely be put back together in the same way.
Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.
