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

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

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

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

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