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

Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

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

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

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

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.
