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

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

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

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.
