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

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

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

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

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

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

Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.
