“A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.”

“A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself-and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.”

“A friend is a gift you give yourself.”

“What are friends for? They are the ultimate reflection of yourself. Always surround yourself with people who inspire you and return the favor by giving them the best of you.”

“[Freedom of speech] isn't something somebody else gives you. That's something you give to yourself.”

“If you want to know who your friends are, get yourself a jail sentence.”

“Love is when you meet someone who tells you something new about yourself.”

“Being around someone who accepts and supports you will remind you to accept and support yourself.”

“A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.”

“Give yourself freedom to try out new things
Don't be so set in your ways that you can't grow.”
