"Judgement holds in me a magisterial seat, at least it carefully tries to. It lets my feelings go their way, both hatred and friendship, even the friendship I bear myself, without being changed and corrupted by them."
"Friendship that possesses the whole soul, and there rules and sways with an absolute sovereignty, can admit of no rival."
"Frienship is eros...without wings"
"I have always laid it down as a maxim -and found it justified by experience -that a man and a woman make far better friendships than can exist between two of the same sex -but then with the condition that they never have made or are to make love to each other."
"Forever in debt to your priceless advice."
