55 Best Friend Quotes – Short Quotes About True Friends

It goes without saying that all friendships should be cherished — including the one between you and your bestie.

No matter if they’ve been your #1 pal since the start or entered the picture later in life, your best friend understands you better than anyone else. They’ve been by your side — literally or from miles away — during your highest highs and lowest lows, proving their loyalty and love through everything life’s thrown your way.

While you know that they’re fully aware of just how much you love them, a friendly reminder is always welcome. And really, you don’t need a special occasion to gush about the deep bond you share with your bestie (except don’t forget to celebrate National Best Friend Day on June 8). When the moment comes, share one of these best friend quotes in a text message or on Instagram for all to see.

Keep scrolling to find short sayings that every dynamic duo can relate to. A lot of these quotes are packed with heart (and sometimes, heartache), but there are a few funny ones thrown into the mix in the event that your partner in crime needs a laugh.
