The best time to make friends is before you need them.

Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

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

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
