A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature. A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. We do not so much need the help of our friends as the confidence of their help in need. My friend is he who will tell me my faults in private. Your friend is your needs answered.
Friends are the sunshine of life.
A sympathetic friend can be quite as dear as a brother. Your friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you. A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care to acquire. A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked. You can make more friends in two months by becoming really interested in other people, than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
