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

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

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

A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

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

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

Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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