Among Life's precious jewels, Genuine and rare, The one that we call friendship Has worth beyond compare.

When friendships are real, they are not glass threads, or frostwork, but the solidest things we know. A friend is the first person who come in when the whole world has gone out.

Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way.

We cannot tell the exact moment a friendship is formed; as in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over; so in a series of kindnesses, there is at last one that makes the heart run over.

There can be no friendship without confidence; and no confidence, without integrity

True friendship is seen through the heart, not through the eyes.
