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

A friendship that like love is warm A love like friendship, steady.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

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

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

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

Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.
