Famous quotes containing the word friends:

    My first few weeks in America are always miserable, because the tastes I am cursed with are all of a kind that cannot be gratified here, & I am not enough in sympathy with our “gros public” to make up for the lack on the aesthetic side. One’s friends are delightful; but we are none of us Americans, we don’t think or feel as the Americans do, we are the wretched exotics produced in a European glass-house, the most déplacé & useless class on earth!
    Edith Wharton (1862–1937)

    Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
    Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Whenever a man’s friends begin to compliment him about looking young, he may be sure that they think he is growing old.
    Washington Irving (1783–1859)
