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

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

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

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

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

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.
