True friends want nothing from you except the joy of your presence. No matter what you do, they will always be your friend.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda
Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
~ Helen Keller
To be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the two greatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength of mind.
~ William Hazlitt
The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
