Friends

Famous quotes containing the word friends:

“The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel;
But do not dull thy palm with entertainment
Of each new-hatched, unfledged comrade. Beware
Of entrance to a quarrel; but being in,
Bear’t that the opposed may beware of thee.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“If there could be such a thing as the Mammon of Righteousness Christina would have assuredly made friends with it.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

“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)
