Hatred is keener than friendship, less keen than love.

Luc de Clapiers

Friendship is one of the greatest gifts a human being can receive. It is a bond beyond common goals, common interests, or common histories. It is a bond stronger than sexual union can create, deeper than a shared fate can solidify, and even more intimate than the bonds of marriage or community. Friendship is being with the other in joy and sorrow, even when we cannot increase the joy or decrease the sorrow. It is a unity of souls that gives nobility and sincerity to love. Friendship makes all of life shine brightly.

Henri Nouwen

Friendship is stronger than kindred.

Publilius Syrus

Like friendship, hatred needed more than physical intimacy; it wanted creativity and hard work to sustain itself
