Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

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

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

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

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

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