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

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

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

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.

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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

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