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

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

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

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

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

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

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