When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

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

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

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

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

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

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

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

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.
