The only way to have a friend is to be one.

Perhaps the most delightful friendships are those in which there is much agreement, much disputation, and yet more personal liking.

True friendship is like sound health, the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it supports.

Part of being sane, is being a little bit crazy.

The friendships of the world are oft confederacies in vice, or leagues of pleasures.

Freedom also includes the right to mismanage your own affairs.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or faraway.

Freedom, then, lies only in our innate human capacity to choose between different sorts of bondage, bondage to desire or self esteem, or bondage to the light that lightens all our lives.

A man is morally free when, in full possession of his living humanity, he judges the world, and judges other men, with uncompromising sincerity.
