Meaningful Quotes on Love and Friendship
No one can possibly do without love and friendship, where these strong bonds are what keeps us going. Let's look upon a couple of quotes that best signify these bonds.
To be in love or to know what it is like to have been in love, makes us believe that it does truly exist. Many of us know what it's like to nurse a broken heart, but we mustn't give up on finding love. Who says that it only exists between lovers, when we're surrounded by love every day―a kind neighbor, friendly passerby, loving friend, or dotting mother. We fail to see love in all its forms, focusing too much on the ones that are temporary. Friendship is love; we don't acknowledge its presence, given our busy lives. With these quotes, you'll be reminded of just how precious these two things are.
