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

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

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

A quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.

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

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

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.
