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

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.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

True friendship is like sound health the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

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.

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.
