Friendship is one of the themes that Mafalda addresses in her cartoons.
Some of the most notable phrases from the famous protagonist are:
" There is an infallible theory about friendship: you always have to know what you can expect from each friend .
" Friendship doubles joys and divides sorrows in half ."
" Friendship can turn into love. Love into friendship... Never ."
" I like people who say what they think. But above all, I like people who do what they say ."
Quino addresses the topic of friendship, highlighting the importance of good friendships in our lives and the need to find real friends, with a humorous tone and philosophizing about the word friendship and what it means.
There are secondary characters in Mafalda's cartoons, her friends.
- FELIPE: Mafalda's best friend. Felipe represents to the dreamer that every child has inside . He has a habit of leaving everything to the last minute and can't stand doing his homework.
- MIGUELITO: He is the smallest of the group. He represents ingenuity and the discovery of the world .
- SUSANITA: Frivolous, gossipy and chatty, a stereotype of the idea of femininity, racist, classist and she cares much more about image and fashion than all her friends .
