True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

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

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

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

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

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

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.

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

True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.
