Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

Be slow to fall into friendship but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

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

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

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

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.

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