Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

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

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.

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

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

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

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

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

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