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

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

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

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

The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

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

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.
