An insincere friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

I have learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

A friendship is like sand in your hand; if held loosely in the palm of your hand, it stays there, but as soon as you close your hand tightly, it slips through your fingers.

Everyone leaves footprints in your memory, but the ones that leave footprints in your heart are the ones you will truly remember.

Lend money to an enemy, and thou will gain him, to a friend and thou will lose him.

We always thought we’d look back on our tears and laugh, but we never thought we’d look back on our laughter and cry.

You can gain a friend in a year, but lose a friend in a minute.

Friends are forever, you might lose them but you’ll never forget them.

You know you’ve read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.
