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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

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

Accountability in friendship is the equivalent of love without strategy.

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

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.

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

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.
