Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

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

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

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

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

A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.
