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

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

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

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

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

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

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

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.
