Beautiful word about friends

In this post I’d like to share the best friendship quotes I’ve found in the past 10+ years.

Because few things have such a huge impact on happiness and the enjoyment, depth and plain fun of life as the friendships we have.

It could be the friendships with our partners, family members, co-workers and the people we have known for a few years now or since we were kids.

Or even with people we have never even met at the other side of the world or the pets we love.

So I’d like to start this year by looking back and share some of the best advice on this topic from the people who have walked this earth over the past hundreds and thousands of years.

This is 136 thought-provoking, beautiful, sometimes poignant and sometimes funny quotes on friendship.

And if you want even more inspiration then I’d recommend this collection of quotes on self-care and this one filled with quotes on never giving up.

[Note: the original version of this post contained 74 quotes but it has now been updated with 60 additional quotes on friendship.]

Friendship is an integral part of all of our lives. We are connected with friends with common interests, hobbies, and goals. However, in 21-century people’s attitude to friendship is a little different:

We are in a hurry somewhere all the time… We are more concerned with our material well-being, and we forget the spiritual life…

We only notice the beauty of things much more often than a human. Friendship quotes illustrate the importance of human relationships. A real friendship shows you, that your close friend is not indifferent.

He expresses his opinion and criticizes you whenever you think it is necessary.

However, it does so constructively by choosing a way that does not question his goodwill.

But do we really need friends?

Do we really need to celebrate our friendship by sharing best friends quotes with them or with others?

A close friend does not require your perfection.

Yes.

People with weak social relationships have a 50 percent higher chance of death at any given time than having a strong social connection.

Fact: Social isolation harms the way a drink or smoking, in some cases, is equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day – and is more damaging than immobility or obesity.

Friendship also contributes to happiness – although the quality is more important here than quantity.

However, the benefits of friendship are likely to vary depending on the person who explains why some people say they are the happiest when they are alone.

Even sharing secrets, often understood as a sign of true friendship, is not so necessary.

Never Go On Trips With Friends You Do Not Love.

One of the best quotes for true human friends:

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself

Research has shown that we are helping our best friends, sharing with them the good, the time and the support not because we expect them to be the same, but because we feel valued because we believe they are really concerned.

In other words, a friend’s loyalty and deep sympathy are more important to us than direct benefit and immediate help.

True friends do not let their friends do stupid things alone.

Emotional support of friends is one of the main factors determining friendship.

Most importantly, being with a friend we feel acknowledged, righteous, and supported in the difficult everyday life around us.

Friendship must be built on memories.

Does real friendship have any rules?

Scientists say yes.
