Prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them.

Publilius Syrus

A true friend is one soul in two bodies.

Aristotle

Reuven listen to me. The Talmud says that a person should do two things for himself. One is to acquire a teacher. Do you remember the other." "Choose a friend," I said. "Yes. You know what a friend is, Reuven? A Greek philosopher said that two people who are true friends are like two bodies with one soul." I nodded. "Reuven, if you can, make Danny Saunders your friend." "I like him a lot, abba." "No. Listen to me. I am not talking about only liking him. I am telling you to make him your friend and to let him make you his friend.

Chaim Potok

Two people who are true friends are like two bodies with one soul

Chaim Potok

The reason we have few friends in adversity, is, because we have no true ones in prosperity.

Norm MacDonald

True friends visit us in prosperity only when invited, but in adversity they come without invitation.

Theophrastus

Prosperity getteth friends, but adversity trieth them.

Nicholas Ling

Into each of our lives come golden moments of adversity. This painful friend breaks our hearts, drops us to our knees, and makes us realize we are nothing without our Lord and Savior. This friend makes us plead all the night long for reassurance and into the next day and sometimes for weeks and months. But, ultimately, just as surely as the day follows the night, as we remain true and faithful, this strange friend, adversity, leads us straight into the outstretched arms of the Savior.

Glenn L. Pace

Prosperity tries the fortunate, adversity the great.

Rose Kennedy

A friend is one soul abiding in two bodies.

Diogenes

A friend is simply one soul in two bodies.

Aristotle

Two friends, two bodies with one soul inspired.

Homer

So use prosperity, that adversity may not abuse thee: if in the one, security admits no fears, in the other, despair will afford no hopes; he that in prosperity can foretell a danger can in adversity foresee deliverance.

Francis Quarles

True friends are a single soul divided between different bodies.

Ali ibn Abi Talib

When you have a good friend that really cares for you and tries to stick in there with you, you treat them like nothing. Learn to be a good friend because one day you're gonna look up and say I lost a good friend. Learn how to be respectful to your friends, don't just start arguments with them and don't tell them the reason, always remember your friends will be there quicker than your family. Learn to remember you got great friends, don't forget that and they will always care for you no matter what. Always remember to smile and look up at what you got in life.

Marilyn Monroe

Adversity removes the friends prosperity has harvested.
