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

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

Friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.

There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

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

My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.
