A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.

Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

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

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

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

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

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.
