Those who do not complicate life choose the easiest way to achieve happiness.

Do not choose friends who only flatter you, but who understand you. True friendship implies willingness to speak frankly, to point out the mistakes we made and to exchange opinions freely.

Friendship can thrive only where there is no self-interest involved.

Genuine and lasting friendship is possible, but it is not easy to achieve. If all of us could establish a long lasting friendship, many mature people would still have old friends from their school days.

True friendship doesn't include jealousy.

Do not look for company at all costs, and especially do not allow loneliness to lead you to fickle love or false friendship.

The older the friendship, the stronger the trust.

A friend is a person who always understands your preoccupations, even when other people do not perceive them at all.

The essence of coexistence is quite simple: live and respect how others live.
