The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship

Cherish your human connections: your relationships with friends and family.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

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

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

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

Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.
