Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

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

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

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.

Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.

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

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
