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

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.
