“Friendship doubles our joy and divides our grief.”
Swedish Proverb
“My friend, ally rotten- I exist, have you forgotten?”
Chaice Regime
“I destroy my enemies when I make them my friends.”
Abraham Lincoln
“Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero
“What is Friendship when complete?'Tis to share all joy and grief; 'Tis to lend all due relief From the tongue, the heart, the hand; 'Tis to mortgage house and land; For a friend be sold a slave; 'Tis to die upon a grave, If a friend therein do lie.”
Anne Finch
“This communicating of a man's self to his friend works two contrary effects; for it redoubleth joys, and cutteth griefs in half.”
Aristotle
“A mother had a slender, small body, but a large heart - a heart so large that everybody's grief and everybody's joy found welcome in it, and hospitable accommodation.”
Mark Twain
