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

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

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