Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

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

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

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.
