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

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 quarrel between friends, when made up, adds a new tie to friendship.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

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

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