We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed.
As in filling a vessel drop by drop
there is at last a drop which makes it run over
so in a series of kindnesses
there is at last one which makes the heart run over.

that we are unreservedly frank with them,
and important to friendship that we are not.

I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.

Don’t ever dare to take your college as a matter of course
because like democracy and freedom,
many people you’ll never know have broken their hearts to get it for you.

I keep my friends as misers do their treasure,
because of all the things granted us by wisdom,
none is greater or better than friendship.

I might give my life for my friend,
but he had better not ask me to do up a parcel.
