Keep friends. Lose enemies. Multiply allies. Increase comrades.

If you step on everyone's toes, you will have no one to dance with.

A shrewd enemy will benefit you more than a foolish friend.

When God is on your side, He uses the plots of your enemies to advance your cause.

Feed your enemies with a long spoon so they can't bite your hand.

Your father you esteem.
Your mother you pamper.
Your relatives you regard.
Your friends you value.
Your neighbors you respect.
Your enemies you pardon.
