But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.

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

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

Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance.

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

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

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.
