Sometimes life can be difficult, and we need people in our corner who we can go to about anything. People who makes our lives easier, better, brighter. Not by doing anything in particular, just by being there for us.
These people are what we call our friends. Friends are one of the most important things to have in life.
Here are 20 of the sweetest quotes about friendship from books.
1. “Two a.m.’ He swallowed, then said, “You know. The person you can call at two a.m. and, no matter what, you can count on them. Even if they’re asleep or it’s cold or you need to be bailed out of jail…they’ll come for you. It’s like, the highest level of friendship.”
― Sarah Dessen, What Happened to Goodbye
2. “’But it does not seem that I can trust anyone,’ said Frodo.
Sam looked at him unhappily. ‘It all depends on what you want,’ put in Merry. ‘You can trust us to stick with you through thick and thin–to the bitter end. And you can trust us to keep any secret of yours–closer than you keep it yourself. But you cannot trust us to let you face trouble alone, and go off without a word. We are your friends, Frodo.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
3. “I got you to look after me, and you got me to look after you, and that’s why.”

― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

― Paulo Coelho, The Zahir
6. “No man is useless while he has a friend.”
― Robert Louis Stevenson, Lay Morals
7. “Time doesn’t take away from friendship, nor does separation.”
