Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

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

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

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

When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

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

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
