In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

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

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

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

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.
