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

The greatest sweetener of human life is Friendship. To raise this to the highest pitch of enjoyment, is a secret which but few discover.

Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.

Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.

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

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.
