Be slow in choosing a friend but slower in changing him.
If your friend is honey, don't lick him thoroughly.
The time to make friends is before you need them.
Your true friend is the one who will never walk away in your time of need. Regardless of the situation, time or location, your true friend will stand by you
Watch your dreams and watch our friends. Take time and watch your friend again with sharpened eyes. Turn on your dreams again; watch them again; then watch your friends once more and know who to keep away and who to keep nearer!
I look back now and realize that the gift of a true friend is that she sees you not the way you see yourself or the way others see you. A true friend sees you for who you are and who you can become.
Our true friends are those who are with us when the good things happen. They cheer us on and are pleased by our triumphs. False friends only appear at difficult times, with their sad, supportive faces, when, in fact, our suffering is serving to conso...
In family matters you can get over anything. That's one thing you'll learn as an adult. There's a lot you have to learn which is a lot worse than that. You'd never think of forgiving a friend for some of the things your parents did to you. But with f...
There have been times when people who weren't my friends all of a sudden became my friend. I won't allow them to use me, but I have been pretty lucky to have friends who have supported me and who I have known since I was 12. They are still the same a...
I met Woz when I was 13, at a friend's garage. He was about 18. He was, like, the first person I met who knew more electronics than I did at that point. We became good friends, because we shared an interest in computers and we had a sense of humor. W...
It's OK to argue with your friends. Guys can do it better than girls, usually, but if you ever get into a fight with a true friend or a spouse or a boyfriend, get it out, fight, be angry for five minutes, and then move past it. Don't let it fester; d...
[after Basie's friend killed Jim's Japanese friend] Jim: Bastard! He gave me a mango! Basie: I'll give you a whole goddamn fruit salad. There are Frigidaires falling from the sky. It's kingdom come! Jim: He was my friend! Basie: He was a Jap! Jim: Th...
K.C.'s Friend: [watching The Krokodiloes sing] What ever happened to Cole Porter and Irving Berlin? KC's Friend: It's a Valentine's theme. They're singing love songs. K.C.'s Friend: Good point, 'cause Cole Porter and Irving Berlin never wrote any lov...
I was told so many times when I was a kid, 'I can't be friends with you, you're too intense, you're too sad all the time.' I really thought that when I made the first album that everyone would understand me, all the people who weren't my friends woul...
But I'm learning it's human nature to want the things you can't have. What changes is how you go about pursuing the things you want. When you're a little kid and you're told no, you scream and throw a temper tantrum. When you're a teenager and your p...
Honesty, like my mama always says, is always the best policy.
The truth is the best picture, the best propaganda.
Prose: words in their best order; poetry: the best words in the best order.
To have a friend, you must first be a friend to yourself
True friends are like diamonds – bright, beautiful, valuable, and always in style.
Max Minghella is a very close friend of mine, and I talk to him regularly.
