I've been my most happy and my most unhappy in relationships. I have family and friends and people I care very much about. I've got a really, really, really good life.

An ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness.

My father always used to say that when you die, if you've got five real friends, you've had a great life.

A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

He who loses money, loses much; He who loses a friend, loses much more; He who loses faith, loses all.

If you lose money you lose much, If you lose friends you lose more, If you lose faith you lose all.

Human relationships, like life itself, can never remain static. They grow or they diminish. But, in either case, they change. Our emotional interests, our intellectual pursuits, our personal preoccupations, all change. So do those of our friends. So the relationship that binds us together must change too; it must be flexible enough to meet the alterations of person and circumstance

being connected in a shallow way to the entire world can prevent us from being deeply connected to those closest to us—including ourselves.

Treat people like family, and they will be loyal and give their all.

The antidote for fifty enemies is one friend.

I was raised that if I'm with you and we get in a fight, I'm going to help you. We're going down together. That's how it goes.
