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

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

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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

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

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