There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship. |
Prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them. |
A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth. |
Close friends contribute to our personal growth. They also contribute to our personal pleasure, making the music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, the laughter ring louder because they are there. |
The trouble is not in dying for a friend, but in finding a friend worth dying for. |
Friendship is the purest love. It is the highest form of love where nothing is asked for, no condition, where one simply enjoys giving. |
Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief. |
Friendship is the marriage of the soul, and this marriage is liable to divorce. |
It is wise to apply the oil of refined politeness to the mechanism of friendship. |
