Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

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

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

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

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

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