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

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

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.
