Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

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

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

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

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.
