Friends and Neighbors

Go up close to your friend, but do not go over to him. We should respect the enemy that is in our friend.

A true friend will stab you in the front. "Well said, Oscar!"

Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school, but if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship you really haven't learned anything at all. "Moon Mulligan, Muhammad Ali... two ways of sayin' the same thing."

It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are 20 gods, or no God. It neither picks my pocket, nor breaks my leg. "Thomas Jefferson, reminding us about the separation of church and state."

In poverty and other misfortunes of life, true friends are a sure refuge. The young they keep out of mischief; to the old they are a comfort and aid in their weakness, and those in the prime of life they incite to noble deeds.

He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, while he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.

Bread for myself is a material question; bread for my neighbor is a spiritual one.
