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

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

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

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

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

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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

Be slow to fall into friendship but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

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