The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.

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