There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

A true friend freely, advises justly, assists readily, adventures boldly, takes all patiently, defends courageously, and continues a friend unchangeably.
But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.
Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.
Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.
It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.
