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

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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

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

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

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

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.
