Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

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

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

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

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

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.
