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

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

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

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

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

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

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
