“In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often…” — François de La Rochefoucauld

“However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.”

“A true friend is the most precious of all possessions and the one we take the least thought about acquiring.”

“A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.”

“In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.”
