Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

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

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

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

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

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

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.
