Aristotle

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

Perfect friendship is the friendship of men who are good, and alike in excellence; for these wish well alike to each other qua good, and they are good in themselves.

Friendship is essentially a partnership.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

He who hath many friends hath none.

A friend to all is a friend to none.

The state comes into existence for the sake of life and continues to exist for the sake of good life.

The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival.

The ideal man bears the accidents of life with dignity and grace, making the best of circumstances.
