| Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you. |
| Trouble is part of your life, and if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you enough chance to love you enough. |
| Don't settle for the one you can live with, wait for the one you can't live without. |
| No matter what you've done for yourself or for humanity, if you can't look back on having given love and attention to your own family, what have you really accomplished? |
| You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job. |
| Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival. |
| A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down. |
| I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar. |
| When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it. |
| Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of joy you must have somebody to divide it with. |
