Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

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

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