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

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

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

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

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

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