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

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

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

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.

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

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

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.
