When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

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

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

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

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

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

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

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.
