You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

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

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

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

Friendship is something that creates equality and mutuality, not a reward for finding equality or a way of intensifying existing mutuality.

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.
