I have a family, loving aunts, and a good home. No, on the surface I seem to have everything except my one true friend. All I think about when I'm with friends is having a good time.

Camille Grammer
True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.
Charles Caleb Colton
Books, like friends, should be few and well chosen. Like friends, too, we should return to them again and again for, like true friends, they will never fail us - never cease to instruct - never cloy.

Win or lose, I always like to get back to my friends and family. They keep me grounded. When I'm home with my friends, I'm always the same Gabriel.

People say it is tough to have true friends in glam world, but I feel it is the same everywhere.

A true friend encourages us, comforts us, supports us like a big easy chair, offering us a safe refuge from the world.

Social media companies are a gold rush today, and time will tell if they survive. I have no use for them and can't see why people waste time on them. I much prefer physical meeting with true friends, so have never used the service.
Networking is all about connecting with people. But then again, isn't that what life is about?

Rare as is true love, true friendship is rarer.
Embrace the fact that you are different, that your differences are what's going to make you great and your true friends are the ones who are going to love you for those differences.
Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.
I've heard it said that the average person is lucky to have only a handful of true friends in their lifetime. Well, I sincerely feel I've got millions.
