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

“Think where mans glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends”

“The language of friendship is not words but meanings ”

“The friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you ”

“Life has no blessing like a prudent friend ”

“It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them ”
