Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.
FRIENDSHIP, SUCCESS ALWAYS NECESSITATES A DEGREE OF RUTHLESSNESS
A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.
An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
FRIENDSHIP, AN EVIL FRIEND WILL WOUND YOUR MIND
Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
friendship, important, world, friends
You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.
Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.
