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

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

I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.

A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.

Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

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

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

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

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