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

A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

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

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

You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

Some people go to priests others to poetry I to my friends.
