Let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.

The sincere friends of this world are as ship lights in the stormiest of nights.

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

It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.

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

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

Our friends interpret the world and ourselves to us, if we take them tenderly and truly.

Real friendship, like real poetry, is extremely rare - and precious as a pearl.

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

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