Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

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

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

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

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.
