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

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

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

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

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

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

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

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

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.
