A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

When the world is so complicated, the simple gift of friendship is within all of our hands.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

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

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

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.
