Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

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

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

True friendship is like sound health the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

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.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.
