True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

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

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

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

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.
