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

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

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

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

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

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

Be slow to fall into friendship but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

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