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

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

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

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

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

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

It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
