The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

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

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

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.
