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

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

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

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
