A Friend Quotes

Inspirational Quotes about A Friend. Amazing and motivational quotes on A Friend.

If you know someone who's depressed, please resolve never to ask them why. Depression isn't a straightforward response to a bad situation; depression just is, like the weather.
Try to understand the blackness, lethargy, hopelessness, and loneliness they're going through. Be there for them when they come through the other side. It's hard to be a friend to someone who's depressed, but it is one of the kindest, noblest, and best things you will ever do.

~ Stephen Fry

If you had a friend who spoke to you in the same way you sometimes speak to yourself, how long would you allow that person to be your friend?

~ Author Unknown

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and sings it back to you when you have forgotten how it goes.

~ Onegai Twins

Nature ... is a friend you will never lose until death-and even when you die, you disappear into nature.

~ Author Unknown

Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow , for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.

~ Kurt Vonnegut

Christmas gift suggestions: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.

~ Oren Arnold

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.

~ Gloria Naylor

You know you've read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.

~ Paul Sweeney

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

~ Melody Beattie

I will spend more time with myself in this lifetime than anyone else. Let me learn to be the kind of person I would like to have as a friend.

~ Al-Anon.

If you have a friend who suffers, you have to help him.«My dear friend, you are on safe ground. Everything is okay now. Why do you continue to suffer? Don't go back to the past. It's only a ghost; it's unreal». And whenever we recognize that these are only movies and pictures, not reality, we are free. That is the practice of mindfulness.

~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Make the decision that you'll no longer use excuses to keep you from what you know is in your best interest. Today, act on something you've always avoided and explained away with a convenient excuse. Make a phone call you've been putting off, write a letter to a friend, put on a pair of walking shoes and go for a stroll, clean out your closet—do something you've been justifying not doing with excuses.

~ Wayne W. Dyer

We live in a disposable culture. We get something, we use it, and when we're done with it, we throw it away—whether it's a hammer, a friend, or our partner. We aren't expected to devote ourselves to anything, so we don't practice being loyal or committing ourselves to things or to people.

~ Daniel Doen Silberberg
