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

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

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

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

The best time to make friends is before you need them.

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.
