Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

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

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

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

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
