Two are better than one...for if they fall, the one will lift up the other; but woe to one that is alone and falls, for that

one has no one to lift them up. -Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

I have learned much from my teachers, but from my friends I have learned even more.

- Talmud Tractate Ta'anit

Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but

myself . . .” ― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies. ― Aristotle

Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love

risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.

― Elie Wiesel

Who keeps quiet and does not call on friends for help in trouble will be personally answerable for the

consequences -Shmuel Hanagid
