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

The best time to make friends is before you need them.

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

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

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

Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

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