I force people to have coffee with me just because I don't trust that a friendship can be maintained without any other senses besides a computer or cellphone screen.

Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

The firmest friendship is based on an identity of likes and dislikes.

To like and dislike the same things this is what makes a solid friendship.

Secrecy is the chastity of friendship.

When friendship disappears then there is a space left open to that awful loneliness of the outside world which is like the cold space between the planets. It is an air in which men perish utterly.

You've got to reach a hand of friendship across the aisle and across philosophies in this country.

We must reach out our hand in friendship and dignity both to those who would befriend us and those who would be our enemy.

One measure of friendship consists not in the number of things friends can discuss but in the number of things they need no longer mention.

Friendship is a very taxing and arduous form of leisure activity.
