A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.

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

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

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

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

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.
