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

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

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

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.
