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

Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.

Love is flower like Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

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

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

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

Friendship needs no words - it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.
