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

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

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

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

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