- 1841, Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Friendship", Essays, Vol. I:
  The only reward of virtue is virtue; the only way to have a friend is to be one.
- 1917, Richard M. Gummere translating Seneca as Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales, Loeb Classical Library, Vol. I, No. 3:

  ...he who looks upon a true friend, looks, as it were, upon a sort of image of himself. Wherefore friends, though absent, are at hand; though in need, yet abound; though weak, are strong; and—harder saying still—though dead, are yet alive; so great is the esteem on the part of their friends, the tender recollection and the deep longing that still attends them.
- 1927 Mar. 31, Ernest Hemingway, letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald:
  ...you are my devoted friend too. You do more and work harder and oh shit I'd get maudlin about how damned swell you are. My god I'd like to see you... You're a hell of a good guy.
