“And it occurred to me that friendship was a lot more dependable, not to mention long-lasting, than love.”
“Friendship is far more tragic than love. It lasts longer.”
“Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.”
“Dependence, she knew, and the longing for more than what you had, led to unhappiness and discontent.”
“A lot of what we're doing here deals with perception rather than truth. Many would argue that reality depends more on the former than the latter.”
“Friendship is everything. Friendship is more than talent. It is more than the government. It is almost the equal of family.”
