The greatest sweetener of human life is Friendship. To raise this to the highest pitch of enjoyment, is a secret which but few discover.

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

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

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.

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

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

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

Friendship is something that creates equality and mutuality, not a reward for finding equality or a way of intensifying existing mutuality.

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.
