There's no better friend to any merchant than a fair competitor.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Business, you know, may bring you money, but friendship hardly ever does.
Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.
I've learned that friendship does not equate business, business does not equate friendship.
My worldview says that competition is the consumer's best friend.
There is no friendship in trade.
The thought in my mind was that I must be a good merchant. If I were a good merchant, the rest would probably take care of itself.
There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship.
A friendship founded on business is better than a business founded on friendship.
Money couldn't buy friends, but you got a better class of enemy.
A friend you have to buy won't be worth what you pay for him.
