No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

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

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.
