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

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

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

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

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

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

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