Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

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

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

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.

Friendship is a strong and habitual inclination in two persons to promote the good and happiness of one another.

But friendship is the breathing rose, with sweets in every fold.

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

Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend.

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