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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

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

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.

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

A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.
