Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

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

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

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

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

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

Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.
