My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

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

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

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.

Yes'm, old friends is always best, 'less you can catch a new one that's fit to make an old one out of.

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