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

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

A true friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

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

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

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

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

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