"The firmest friendships have been formed in mutual adversity, as iron is most strongly united by the fiercest flame"
"Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship - never."
"Men spend their lives in anticipations,—in determining to be vastly happy at some period when they have time. But the present time has one advantage over every other—it is our own. Past opportunities are gone, future have not come. We may lay in a stock of pleasures, as we would lay in a stock of wine; but if we defer the tasting of them too long, we shall find that both are soured by age."
"Friendship often ends in love. But love in friendship; never."
"True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost."
