I like friends who have independent minds because they tend to make you see problems from all angles.

A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man, that actions, not words, are the true criterion of the attachment of his friends, and that the most liberal professions of good will are very far from being the surest marks of it. I should be happy that my own experience had afforded fewer examples of the little dependence to be placed upon them.

Friends must always be treated as if one day they might be enemies.

Love, friendship, laughter... some of the best things in life really are free.

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

I get by with a little help from my friends.
