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

When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

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

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

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
