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

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

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

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

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

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

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

Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.

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

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