A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

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.

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

Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

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