If instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give.

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

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

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

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

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

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.
