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

Friends and good manners will carry you where money won't go.

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

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

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

Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth.

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

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.

When you choose your friends, don't be short-changed by choosing personality over character.
