Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.
