Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.
