True friendship is like sound health the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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 single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

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

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.
