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 friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

Be slow to fall into friendship but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

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

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
