Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.
Was I ever crazy? Maybe. Or maybe life is… Crazy isn’t being broken or swallowing a dark secret. It’s you or me amplified. If you ever told a lie and enjoyed it. If you ever wished you could be a child forever. They were not perfect, but they were my friends.
When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.
Betrayal is the only truth that sticks.
Which of all my important nothings shall I tell you first?
A faithful friend is a strong defense; And he that hath found him hath found a treasure.
When friendships are real, they are not glass threads or frost work, but the solidest things we can know.
When you feel someone else's pain and joy as powerfully as if it were your own, then you know you really loved them.
A real friend isn't capable of feeling sorry for you.
There is a primal reassurance in being touched, in knowing that someone else, someone close to you, wants to be touching you. There is a bone-deep security that goes with the brush of a human hand, a silent, reflex-level affirmation that someone is near, that someone cares.
There used to be days that I thought I was okay, or at least that I was going to be. We'd be hanging out somewhere and everything would just fit right and I would think 'it will be okay if it can just be like this forever' but of course nothing can ever stay just how it is forever.
I’ve become skeptical of the unwritten rule that just because a boy and girl appear in the same feature, a romance must ensue. Rather, I want to portray a slightly different relationship, one where the two mutually inspire each other to live - if I’m able to, then perhaps I’ll be closer to portraying a true expression of love.
Give your friendships the magic you would give a romance. Because they're just as important. Actually, for us, they're way more important.
I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led to those who help us most to grow If we let them and we help them in return.
Unreal friendship may turn to real But real friendship, once ended, cannot be mended
The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers & cities; but to know someone who thinks & feels with us, & who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.
Who could refrain, That had a heart to love, and in that heart Courage to make love known?
New friends can often have a better time together than old friends.
V-Day…if you need this one day in a year to show everyone else you truly care for your loved one I think it’s quite stupid. I hate this commercialism. It’s all artificial, and has nothing to do with real love.
One friend with whom you have a lot in common is better than three with whom you struggle to find things to talk about.
