It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

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

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

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship

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

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

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