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.
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one.'
In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.
Ultimately the bond of all companionship, whether in marriage or in friendship, is conversation.
Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.

A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.

Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way.
Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.
