Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

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

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

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

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

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

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