Since my Friendship Theme Album is finally complete, I thought I'd share some awesome friendship quotes and poems I found to include in my album.

These would be great on your layouts, or even in cards you create and personalize.

Quotes:

"True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it be lost." - Charles Caleb Colton

"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born." - Anais Nin

"My friends are my estate." - Emily Dickinson

"A friend is one who walks in when others walk out" -Walter Winchell

"A friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else." - Len Wein

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." - unknown "A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself." - unknown "Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Walk beside me and be my friend." - Albert Camus "A hug is worth a thousand words. A friend is worth more." - unknown "Everyone is a friend, until they prove otherwise." - unknown

"Every person is a new door to a different world." - from movie "Six Degrees of Separation"

"It takes a long time to grow an old friend." - by John Leonard

POEMS:

The Fabric of our Friendship The fabric of our Friendship came from above, and is sewn together with threads of Love.

Recipe for Friendship 1 cup encouragement 1 1/2 cups laughter 2 cups understanding 1/2 cup each life's joys & sorrows

Mix well. Sprinkle with love and prayers. Bake in a warm heart for a lifetime. Serve often with tea or coffee.

Song of a Friend A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and sings it to you when you forget the words.

Girlfriends:

Girlfriends bring casseroles and scrub your bathroom when you are sick. Girlfriends keep your children and keep your secrets. Girlfriends give advice when you ask for it. Sometimes you take it, sometimes you don't. Girlfriends don't always tell you that you're right, but they're usually honest. Girlfriends still love you, even when they don't agree with your choices. Girlfriends might send you a birthday card, but they might not. It does not matter in the least. Girlfriends laugh with you, and you don't need canned jokes to start the laughter. Girlfriends pull you out of jams. Girlfriends don't keep a calendar that lets them know who hosted the other last. Girlfriends are there for you, in an instant and truly, when the hard times come. Girlfriends listen when you lose a job or a husband. Girlfriends listen when your children break your heart. Girlfriends listen when your parents' minds and bodies fail.

Make New Friends Make new friends But keep the old One is sliver-- The other gold

Circle round That has no end That's how long I want to be Your friend!

Special Friends It has been said that real friends Are very hard to find The ones that stay when times are tough Real friends - the lasting kind.

As I travel through this life I know one thing is true I will never find a better friend Than I have found in you.

You've Got a Friend Winter, spring, summer or fall all you've got to do is call and I'll be there, yes I will You've got a friend
