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

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

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

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.
