Companion Quotes

Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice Picture Quote #1

Do not neglect your music. It will be a companion which will sweeten many hours of life to you Picture Quote #1

Do not put your trust in a bad companion nor even trust an ordinary friend, for if he should get angry with you, he may bring all your secrets to light Picture Quote #1

It is well to cultivate a friendly feeling towards error, to treat it as a companion inseparable from our lives, as something having a purpose, which it truly has Picture Quote #1

We should not expect the state to appear in the guise of an extravagant good fairy at every christening, a loquacious companion at every stage of life’s journey, and the unknown mourner at every funeral Picture Quote #1

For years my wedding ring has done its job. It has led me not into temptation. It has reminded my husband numerous times at parties that it’s time to go home. It has been a source of relief to a dinner companion. It has been a status symbol in the maternity ward Picture Quote #1

He that outlives a wife whom he has long loved, sees himself disjoined from the only mind that has the same hopes, and fears, and interest; from the only companion with whom he has shared much good and evil; and with whom he could set his mind at liberty, to retrace the past or anticipate the future. The continuity of being is lacerated; the settled course of sentiment and action is stopped; and life stands suspended and motionless Picture Quote #1

Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament. It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius. Without it, what is man? A splendid slave, a reasoning savage Picture Quote #1

Sometimes he caught himself listening to the sound of his own voice. He thought that in her eyes he would ascent to an angelical stature; and, as he attached the fervent nature of his companion more and more closely to him, he heard the strange impersonal voice which he recognised as his own, insisting on the soul’s incurable lonliness. We cannot give ourselves, it said: we are our own Picture Quote #1

Why should I cumber myself with regrets that the receiver is not capacious? It never troubles the sun that some of his rays fall wide and vain into ungrateful space, and only a small part on the reflecting planet. Let your greatness educate the crude and cold companion Picture Quote #1

It seemed an advantage to be traveling alone. Our responses to the world are crucially moulded by the company we keep, for we temper our curiosity to fit in with the expectations of others... Being closely observed by a companion can also inhibit our observation of others; then, too, we may become caught up in adjusting ourselves to the companion’s questions and remarks, or feel the need to make ourselves seem more normal than is good for our curiosity Picture Quote #1

There is no reason in the world why you should not be important where you are known. You have good sense, and a sweet temper, and I am sure you have a grateful heart, that could never receive kindness without hoping to return it. I do not know any better qualifications for a friend and companion Picture Quote #1

In tragedy and despair, when an endless night seems to have fallen, hope can be found in the realization taht the companion of night is not another night, that the companion of night is day, that darkness always gives way to light, and that death rules only half of creation, life the other half Picture Quote #1

I thrive best on solitude. If I have had a companion only one day in a week, unless it were one or two I could name, I find that the value of the week to me has been seriously affected. It dissipates my days, and often it takes me another week to get over it Picture Quote #1

Solitude can become your most meaningful companion and it can assist you in being a more giving person in your spiritual partnerships. Rather than regarding your partner’s need for time alone as a threat, see it as a time of renewal that you celebrate. Make every effort to help each other have that space. Treat that space as sacred Picture Quote #1

Sex endows the individual with a dumb and powerful instinct, which carries his body and soul continually towards another, makes it one of the dearest employments of his life to select and pursue a companion, and joins to possession the keenest pleasure, to rivalry the fiercest rage, and to solicitude an eternal melancholy. What more could be needed to suffuse the world with the deepest meaning and beauty? Picture Quote #1

He often spoke aloud to himself now, or hummed, without ever noticing it, as if ignoring an old companion who always said the same things Picture Quote #1

For me, the card catalog has been a companion all my working life. To leave it is like leaving the house one was brought up in Picture Quote #1

Nature has been for me, for as long as I remember, a source of solace, inspiration, adventure, and delight; a home, a teacher, a companion Picture Quote #1

It is always my endeavour however in making a picture that it should be without a companion in the world. At least such should be a painters ambition Picture Quote #1

Eh! Sire, that is the fate of truth; she is a stern companion; she bristles all over with steel; she wounds those whom she attacks, and sometimes him who speaks her Picture Quote #1

Favorite... One chosen as a companion by his superior; a mean wretch whose whole business is by any means to please Picture Quote #1

It’s wrenching enough to lose the man who is your lover, your companion, your best friend, the father of your children, without losing yourself as well Picture Quote #1

Memory holds together past and present, gives continuity and dignity to human life... The companion... The tutor, the poet, the library, with which you travel Picture Quote #1

A companion is but another self; wherefore it is an argument that a man is wicked if he keep company with the wicked Picture Quote #1

Still though the headlong cavalier, over rough and smooth, in wild career, seems racing with the wind; his sad companion, ghastly pale, and darksome as a widow’s veil, care keeps her seat behind Picture Quote #1

Conscience, that boon companion who sets a man free under the strong breastplate of innocence, that bids him on and fear not Picture Quote #1

Love can either be your greatest companion or your worst enemy, depending on your pride to accept or deny things Picture Quote #1

Virtue refuses facility for her companion... The easy, gentle, and sloping path that guides the footsteps of a good natural disposition is not the path of true virtue. It demands a rough and thorny road Picture Quote #1
