I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

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

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

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

Caring for but never trying to own may be a further way to define friendship.

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings

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

A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your success!
