If a man does not make new acquaintances as he passes through life,
he will soon find himself alone.
A man should keep his friendships in constant repair.
~ Samuel Johnson
Make not thy friend to cheap to thee,
nor thyself to thy friend.
~ Thomas Fuller
Wishing to be friends is quick work,
but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.
~ Aristotle
Friendship makes prosperity more brilliant,
and lightens adversity by dividing and sharing it.
~ Cicero
