An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

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

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

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.
