Loyalty is what we seek in friendship.

The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home.

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

I not only use all the brains I have, but all I can borrow.

If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.

A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy. Let a man be one thing or the other, and we then know how to meet him.

A blow from your friend is better than a kiss from your enemy.

Friendship is nothing else than an accord in all things, human and divine, conjoined with mutual goodwill and affection.

A friend is, as it were, a second self.

My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.

A friend to all is a friend to none.

Anybody amuses me for once. A new acquaintance is like a new book. I prefer it, even if bad, to a classic.
