Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

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

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

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

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

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

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

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.
