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

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

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

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

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

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

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