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

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

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

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.

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

It is important to our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

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

An excellent man he has no enemies and none of his friends like him.

I always felt that the great high privilege, relief and comfort of friendship was that one had to explain nothing.

Friendship, like the immortality of the soul, is too good to be believed.
