Friends

Famous quotes containing the word friends:

“We follow where the Swamp Fox guides,
His friends and merry men are we;
And when the troop of Tarleton rides,
We burrow in the cypress tree.
The turfy hammock is our bed,
Our home is in the red deer’s den,
Our roof, the tree-top overhead,
For we are wild and hunted men.”
—William Gilmore Simms (1806–1872)

“I am never tempted to pray but when a warm feeling for my friends comes athwart my heart.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

“In a bad marriage, friends are the invisible glue. If we have enough friends, we may go on for years, intending to leave, talking about leaving—instead of actually getting up and leaving.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
