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

It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

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

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

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

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

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