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

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

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

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

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

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

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

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