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

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.

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

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

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

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

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

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