“Friendship is the wine of life. ”

“Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.”

“Like the sacramental use of water and bread and wine, friendship takes what's common in human experience and turns it into something holy.”

“I find friendship to be like wine, raw when new, ripened with age, the true old man's milk and restorative cordial.”

“It is the attendance at a great meal, with one too many courses and two too many glasses of wine, that makes civilization spin, romance bloom and friendship last. ”

“Friendship is so important. The goal of a good friendship should be for life! To keep it for life! If you find a friendship, and it gives you a joy inside, a peace, and a freedom; keep that friendship for life. Through it all, you stay together. So many friendships are toxic, but the good ones are really good! I always tell my son this, I always say, a friend is for life!”
