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

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

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

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

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.

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

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