Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

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

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

Men kick friendship around like a football, but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

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

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

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

Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

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

A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.
