It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.

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

True friendship is like sound health the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.

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

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

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

One's friends are that part of the human race with which one can be human.
