Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

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

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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.

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

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.
