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

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

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

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

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 friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

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

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.
