A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

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

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

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

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.
