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

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

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

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

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

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

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.

Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

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