Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

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

Be slow to fall into friendship but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.
