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

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

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

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

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

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

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

Never have a companion that casts you in the shade.

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil.
