Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art. It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

    Freundschaft ist unnötig, wie Philosophie, wie Kunst. es hat keinen Überlebenswert; Vielmehr ist es eines dieser Dinge, die dem Überleben einen Wert verleihen.

    l'amitié n'est pas nécessaire, comme la philosophie, comme l'art. il n'a aucune valeur de survie; c'est plutôt une de ces choses qui valorisent la survie.

    मित्रता अनावश्यक है, दर्शन की तरह, कला की तरह। इसका कोई अस्तित्व मूल्य नहीं है; बल्कि यह उन चीजों में से एक है जो अस्तित्व को मूल्य देते हैं।

    przyjaźń jest niepotrzebna, jak filozofia, jak sztuka. nie ma wartości dla przetrwania; jest to raczej jedna z tych rzeczy, które nadają przetrwaniu wartość.

    స్నేహం అనవసరం, తత్వశాస్త్రం, కళ వంటిది. దీనికి మనుగడ విలువ లేదు; బదులుగా అది మనుగడకు విలువనిచ్చే వాటిలో ఒకటి.
