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.

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

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

Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.
