Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.

Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

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

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

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

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
