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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.

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

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.
