Famous quotes containing the word enemies:
“You may have enemies whom you hate, but not enemies whom you despise. You must take pride in your enemy: then your enemy’s successes will be your successes as well.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Where there is no style, there is in effect no point of view. There is, essentially, no anger, no conviction, no self. Style is opinion, hung washing, the calibre of a bullet, teething beads.... One’s style holds one, thankfully, at bay from the enemies of it but not from the stupid crucifixions by those who must willfully misunderstand it.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
“Don’t make your enemies happy.
Make up with your lover,
who’s greedy to be back
in your good graces.
Daughter,
because you’ve taken anger to extremes,
you won’t amount
to a hill of beans.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
