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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

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

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

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
