It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

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

A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

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

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.
