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

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

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

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.
