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

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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

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

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