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

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.

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

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

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

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

Even where friendship is concerned, it takes me a long time to trust people.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.
