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

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

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

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
