Friendship Treaty

Famous quotes containing the words friendship and/or treaty:

“I hate the prostitution of the name of friendship to signify modish and worldly alliances. I much prefer the company of ploughboys and tin-peddlers, to the silken and perfumed amity which celebrates its days of encounter by a frivolous display, by rides in a curricle, and dinners at the best taverns.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“No treaty is ever an impediment to a cheat.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
