Friend is Health

True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it be lost

Forgiving Parents

When women feel they have learned to forgive their mothers - and men, their fathers - all it usually means is that they've decided to allow themselves the same kind of behavior

Greatest Gift

Remember, the greatest gift is not found in a store nor under a tree, but in the hearts of true friends.

Deadness

A deadness occurs in relationships when people are no longer willing to tell each other how they really feel.

The Silence

In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends

Proportions

The value of a relationship is in direct proportion to the time that you invest in the relationship.

Be My Friend

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Walk beside me and be my friend.

Be Interested

You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.

Trust Men

Trust men and they will be true to you; treat them greatly and they will show themselves great.

You Are One

When you struggle with your partner, you are struggling with yourself. Every fault you see in them touches a denied weakness in yourself.

What's Missing

Problems in relationship occur because each person is concentrating on what is missing in the other person.

Place to Give

Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something. They're trying to find someone who's going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.

Trust

Trust is the glue of life. It's the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It's the foundational principle that holds all relationships.

Love is like a Rose

A relationship is like a rose. How long it lasts, no one knows. Love can erase an awful past, love can be yours, you'll see at last. To feel that love, it makes you sigh. To have it leave, you'd rather die. You hope you've found that special rose, cause you love and care for the one you choose.

True Friendship

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

Mirror of Who you are

However good or bad you feel about your relationship, the person you are with at this moment is the "right" person, because he or she is the mirror of who you are inside.

Hungry for Love

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

You Alone

The hours I spend with you I look upon as sort of a perfumed garden, a dim twilight, and a fountain singing to it. You and you alone make me feel that I am alive. Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.

Two as Whole

Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole.

The Truth

All you'll get from strangers is surface pleasantry or indifference. Only someone who loves you will criticize you.
