A friend, therefore, is a sort of paradox in nature. I who alone am, I who see nothing in nature whose existence I can affirm with equal evidence to my own, behold now the semblance of my being, in all its height, variety, and curiosity, reiterated in a foreign form; so that a friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.
Ralph Waldo Emerson - Essays – Friendship, First Series, (1841)
I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage. When they are real, they are not glass threads or frost-work, but the coldest thing we know.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) - Essays – Friendship (1841)
Delicious is a just and firm encounter of two in a thought, in a feeling.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) - Essays – Friendship (1841)
We take care of our health; we lay up money; we make our roof tight, and our clothing sufficient; but who provides wisely that he shall not be wanting in the best property of all, —friends?
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) - Essay - The Conduct of Life, Considerations By the Way, in The Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Vol III, Hearst's International Library Co, NY, 1914, p. 180
A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) - Essays – Friendship, First Series, (1841)
Our friendships hurry to short and poor conclusions, because we have made them a texture of wine and dreams, instead of the tough fibre of the human heart. The laws of friendship are great, austere and eternal, of one web with the laws of nature and of morals. But we have aimed at a swift and petty benefit, to suck a sudden sweetness. We snatch at the lowest fruit in the whole garden of God, which many summers and many winters must ripen. We seek our friend not sacredly, but with an adulterate passion which would appropriate him to ourselves.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) - Essays – Friendship, First Series, (1841)
A sure friend is known in unsure circumstances.
Amicus certus in re incerta cernitur
Quintus Ennius - Hecuba (c 180 B.C.E) Also quoted by Cicero in Laelius 17.64.
How can life be worth living, if devoid Of the calm trust reposed by friend in friend? What sweeter joy than in the kindred soul, Whose converse differs not from self-communion?
Quintus Ennius (239-169 BC) - Quoted in Marcus Tullius Cicero. "De Amicitia," Scipio's Dream, Section 6, tr. Andrew Peabody, 1887, The Ethical Writings of Cicero
Of all the means which wisdom acquires to ensure happiness throughout the whole of life, by far the most important is friendship.
Epicurus (341BC-250BC) - Soverign Maxims (28)
It is not so much our friends' help that helps us as the confidence of their help.
Epicurus (341BC-250BC) - A Life Worthy of the Gods - The Life and Work of Epicurus, Cassius Amicus, Humphries Translation, VS34.
One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.
Euprides - Orestes (480 F.C.) Translated by William Arrowsmith
Friendship is the shadow of the evening which strengthens with the setting sun of life.
Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) - Quoted in A Homiletic Encyclopaedia of Illustrations in Theology and Morals, Funk & Wagnalls, 1888, p360.
Trouble is a sieve through which we sift our acquaintances. Those too big to pass through are our friends.
Arlene Francis (1907-2001) - Quoted in Typo Graphic, E. Stuart, 1938, p. 226
When all is said and done, friendship is the only trustworthy fabric of the affections. So-called LOVE is a delirious inhuman state of mind: when hot it substitutes indulgence for fair play; when cold it is cruel, but friendship is warmth in cold, firm ground in a bog.
Miles Franklin (1879-1954) - My Career Goes Bung, 1946
Be slow in choosing a friend, slower in changing.
Benjamin Franklin —Poor Richard’s Almanack for 1735.
Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.
Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) - Sand and Foam (1926)

Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) -in The Prophet, "On Friendship," (1923)
Your friend is your needs answered. He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving. And he is your board and your fireside. For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.
Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) -in The Prophet, "On Friendship," (1923)
The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone who thinks and feels with us, and who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Wer nicht die Welt in seinen Freunden sieht
Verdient nicht, dass die Welt von ihm erfahre
He who does not see the whole world in his friends, does not deserve that the world should hear of him.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe -Torquato Tasso, I. 3. 68

Ulysses S. Grant
