Abraham LincolnMy friends, there are no friends.
Coco ChanelOVOXO will always be there.
The WeekndI can honestly say, after talking about my mom passing away, I got the biggest weight off of my chest. Comedy is my therapy. That’s how I deal with my problems, my personal battles. I talk about it. I give it to my fans. When they laugh at it, it’s a release, for lack of a better word.
Kevin HartWe make our friends; we make our enemies; but God makes our next door neighbour.
Gilbert K. ChestertonIf we listened to our intellect, we’d never have a love affair. We’d never have a friendship. We’d never go into business, because we’d be cynical. Well, that’s nonsense. You’ve got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.
Ray BradburyI was always very curious as a young man about why older writers who I met seemed so indifferent to what was going on, whereas I, in my 20s, was reading everything.

John F. KennedyI hate letting my teammates down. I know I’m not going to make every shot. Sometimes I try to make the right play, and if it results in a loss, I feel awful. I don’t feel awful because I have to answer questions about it. I feel awful in that locker room because I could have done something more to help my teammates win.
LeBron JamesIt is not so much our friends‘ help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.
EpicurusUnderstand, our police officers put their lives on the line for us every single day. They’ve got a tough job to do to maintain public safety and hold accountable those who break the law.

Alice WalkerI personally have always been in favor of people who are gay being permitted to marry legally – and I still feel that way.

Steven WrightThis character feels so much like my brother. He has two children. He has a wife. He works with me. He chooses to stay in New Hampshire because he wants his kids to grow up in the school they started with. He doesn’t want them to lose friends. He is his family’s hero.
Adam SandlerLet it be our delight to find our society in the circle of which Jesus is the center, and let us make those our friends who are the friends of Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
