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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

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

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.
