Every friendship goes through ups and downs. Dysfunctional patterns set in; external situations cause internal friction; you grow apart and then bounce back together.
Friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be increased by short intermissions.
The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.
What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.
Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?
Love is the attempt to form a friendship inspired by beauty.
However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.
— François de La Rochefoucauld
Neatness begets order; but from order to taste there is the same difference as from taste to genius, or from love to friendship.
By nature, man hates change; seldom will he quit his old home till it has actually fallen around his ears.
