 Friendship Sayings:  F   


For many people.. it’s our siblings that are our first and oldest friends.

Friends are kisses blown to us by angels.

Friends are like stars…  you may not always see them, but you know they are there.

Friends are like the walls of a house…
Sometimes they hold you up.
Sometimes you lean on them.
But, sometimes it’s enough to know they’re standing by.

Friendship is a golden chain
The links are friends so dear
And like a rare and precious jewel
It’s treasured more each year

It’s clasped together firmly
With a love that’s deep and true
And it’s rich with happy memories
And fond recollections too.

Time can’t destroy its beauty
For, as long as memory lives
Years can’t erase the pleasure
That the joy of friendship gives

For friendship is a priceless gift
That can’t be bought or sold
But to have an understanding friend
Is worth far more than gold

And the golden chain of friendship
Is a strong and blessed tie
Binding kindred hearts together
As the years go passing by

Friendship isn’t a big thing…  It’s a million little things.

Friendship… The only cement that will hold the world together.

Friendship Sayings:  I   


I like me when I am with you.

I want to love you without clutching
Appreciate you without judging
Join you without invading
Invite you without demanding
Leave you without guilt
Criticise you without blaming
And help you without insulting
If I can have the same from you
then we can truly meet
and enrich each other

If friendship were a colour, you would be a rainbow to me.

If the light that shines on you seems to darken by the day, remember that a friend of yours is never far away.

If two hearts are meant to be friends… No matter how long it takes, how far they go, how tough it seems, fate will bring them together to share friendship forever.

If you appreciate someone…   Let them know.

If you make friends with yourself.. you will never be alone.

If you’re alone…  I’ll be your shadow.
If you want to cry…  I’ll be your shoulder.
If you want a hug…  I’ll be your pillow.
If you need to be happy…  I’ll be your smile.
But anytime you need a friend…  I’ll just be me.

It can lift our hearts when someone takes the time to say that warm and special caring thoughts are being sent our way, it brings a touch of happiness and sunshine to our day.

It is in the shelter of each other, that the people live

People don’t always need advice. Sometimes all they really need is a hand to hold, an ear to listen,  and a heart to understand them.

People need people and friends need friends
And we all need love for a full life depends
Just in knowing that someone cares
And holds us close in their thoughts and prayers

People say true friends must always hold hands, but true friends don’t need to hold hands because they know the other hand will always be there.

The special gift of friendship should be treasured every day, it’s something very precious and should always be that way.

Though miles may lie between us, we’re never far apart. For friendship doesn’t count the miles, it’s measured by the heart.

To have a friend and be a friend, is what makes life worthwhile

To make a difference in someone’s life, you don’t have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful or perfect. You just have to care enough and be there.

Treat your friends like you do your best pictures… Place them in the best light.

True friends are never forgotten.  They live within your heart.

True friends are special people
They are angels without wings
They bring you joy
And fill your heart
With many precious things

True friendship isn’t about being inseparable, it’s being separated and nothing changes.
