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

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

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

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

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

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.
