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.

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

It may be a cold, clammy thing to say, but those that treat friendship the same as any other selfishness seem to get the most out of it.

The little trouble in the world that is not due to love is due to friendship.

A good scare is worth more to a man than good advice.

Marriage is a good deal like a circus: there is not as much in it as is represented in the advertising.
