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

Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

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

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

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

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

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

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