Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

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

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
