There is nothing nothing more nobler or more admirable than two people who see eye to eye keeping house as man and wife, confirming their enemies and delighting their friends.

For a friend with an understanding heart is worth no less than a brother

True friends appear less moved than counterfeit.

Far and near friends knew this house; for he whose home it was had much acquaintance in the world

There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends.

Friends are an aid to the young, to guard them from error; to the elderly, to attend to their wants and to supplement their failing power of action; to those in the prime of life, to assist them to noble deeds.
