Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.

Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.

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

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

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

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

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.

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

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

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.
