The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

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

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

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

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

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

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.
