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.

Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

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

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