Wordings on Friendship
These two wordings on friendship were both written many years ago. Some would consider the words as short friendship poems. But, both still have wisdom in their words and contain inspirational advice on the meaning of being friends. And, as we know friends have a way of bringing joy and happiness to our lives. We hope the short verses inspire you and remind you of your friends.By Sydney Smith
I am for frank explanations with friends in case of affronts
sometimes save a perishing friendship;
sometimes they even place it on a firmer basis than before.
Secret discontent always end badly.
And by the way,
we ought to remember that the word friendship applies to
relationships in the family quite as much as with outsiders.
Somebody once said that love may not be
any part of friendship
but friendship must always
exist for love to be happy.

More Short Friendship Thoughts
By St. Augustine
The love of friendship should be gratuitous.
You ought not to have or
to love a friend for what he will give you.
If you love him for the reason that
he will supply you with money or some other temporal favor ,
you love the gift rather than him.
A friend should be loved freely for himself ,
and not for anything else.
