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

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

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

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.

Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.
