Rules Of Love And Friendship

1. We cannot really love someone who never makes us laugh.

2. A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out.

3. Begin the day with friendliness, keep friendly all day long, keep in your
soul a friendly thought, your heart a friendly song.

4. When a friend is in trouble, don't ask if there
is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it.

5. Some people make the world special just by being in it.

6. The heart that loves is always young.

7. Love is earth and sky and warmth and light.

8. Actions, not words, are the true criteria of the attachment of friends.

9. Love pours sweetness into anything.

10. Love can transform the world.

11. Take hold gently, let go gently. This is a
great source to happiness in love.

12. Only friends will tell you the truths you
need to hear to make your life bearable.

13. Not even poets have measured how much love a heart can hold.

14. Only with the heart can we see rightly, the essential is invisible to
the eye.

15. Love is feeling another's delight as your own.

16. Love consists of this, that two solitude's protect and touch and greet
each other.

17. You love simply because you cannot help it.

18. Love makes you believe in miracles.

19. Instead of a gem, or even a flower, cast the gift of a lovely thought
into the heart of a friend.

20. Love is, above all, the gift of oneself.
