I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

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

Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

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.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
