However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.
There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.
Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing.
Friendship has its illusions no less than love.
True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island... to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing.
It is only the great hearted who can be true friends. The mean and cowardly, Can never know what true friendship means.
Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.
Love demands infinitely less than friendship.
Love is rarer than genius itself. And friendship is rarer than love.
Rare as is true love, true friendship is rarer.
