A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.

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

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