Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

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

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

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

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.
