A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

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

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.
