Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

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

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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

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

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.
