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

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

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.

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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

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

Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.
