Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

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

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.
