Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

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

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.
