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

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

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

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

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

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.
