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

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
