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

A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

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

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

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

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

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

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