“Friendship Never explain / your friends do not need it, and your enemies will not believe it anyway. A real friend never gets in your way, unless you happen to be on the way down. A friend is someone you can do nothing with and enjoy it. However much we guard ourselves against it, we tend to shape ourselves in the image others have of us. It is not so much the example of others we imitate, as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.”
Eric Hoffer
“If you would keep your Secret from an enemy, tell it not to a friend.”
Benjamin Franklin
“Be civil to all, sociable to many, familiar with few, friend to one, enemy to none”
“Our friends show us what we can do; our enemies teach us what we must do.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend.”
Albert Camus
“I destroy my enemies when I make them my friends.”
Abraham Lincoln
“Your friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.”
Elbert Hubbard
