Society friendship and love
Divinely bestow'd upon man,
O had I the wings of a dove
How soon I would taste you again!

 
William Cowper
 

Son, you're probably too young to look for wisdom in anyone's words but your own, but I'll tell you this: love is the enemy... Yes. The poets continually and sometimes willfully mistake love. Love is the old slaughterer. Love is not blind. Love is a cannibal with extremely acute vision. Love is insectile; it is always hungry.
When asked what love eats:
Friendship. It eats friendship.

 
Stephen King
 

Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.

 
Oscar Wilde
 

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

 
Lord Byron
 

True friendship implies full confidence, which may only be completely given or completely withdrawn. If friendship has continually to be analyzed, nursed, and cured, it will cause more anguish than love itself, without having love's strength and its remedies. And if this confidence is ill-placed? Well - I would rather be betrayed by a false friend than deceive a true one.

 
Andre Maurois
