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

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

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

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

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.
