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

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

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

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

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.
