“As I look at my life, I might ask “Who is the person that represents the greatest threat to me?â€� And if I happen to have a mirror around somewhere, I can rather quickly answer that question.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“For out of the eyes of every stranger looks either a friend or an enemy, waiting to be known.”
― Owen Wister, The Virginian

“It's lovely when the dark is your friend, isn't it? When you turn on the light, it makes the dark your enemy... and it glowers in at you resentfully.”
― L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Windy Poplars

“The number of things we do not like about someone skyrockets as soon as we find out that they do not like us.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“To make someone hate you even more, refuse to hate them back.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

The future is not some place you are going to, but one we are creating.
The paths to it are not found but made.”
― Allan Bridjith

“To win a war you must come to know all the players. All of them. Living ones, who will face you across the field. Dead ones, whose legends are wielded like weapons, or held like eternally beating hearts. Hidden players, inanimate players â€� the land itself, or the sea, if you will. Forests, hills, mountains, rivers. Currents both seen and unseen â€� no, Tavore didn't say all that; she was far more succinct, but it's taken me a long time to fully understand. It's not "know your enemy". That's simplistic and facile. No, it's "know your enemies". There's a big difference, Apsalar, because one of your enemies could be the face in the silver mirror.”
― Steven Erikson, The Bonehunters

“Your enemies cannot make you hate them, define you, or make you obsessively think about them, only you can do that.”
― Carmine Savastano

“I took him for a kind of buffoon. Now I see he is a devil.”
― Iris Murdoch, The Green Knight

“Our denial of our weakness is as profitable to our opponents as our unawareness of our strength.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend ... even if it's a monster.”
― Nnedi Okorafor, Binti

“He shook his head. "Good-bye, my dear. I'm afraid the next time we meet, we'll be bitter enemies."
She clasped his hand. "Then I hope we never meet again."
Then, with a wave of her hands, she vanished.”
― Traci Chee, The Speaker

“We’re our own worst enemy and our own best friend.”
― Donna Goddard, Circles of Separation

“It is humanly impossible to be an entirely bad or good person.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“In my experience a good row not only does not clear the air but can land you with a lifelong enemy.”
― Iris Murdoch, The Sea, the Sea

“The best way to hurt someone who hates you is to love them or someone they hate; the second best is to refuse to hate them back; and the third best is to learn from their mistakes.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“We are attached to friends and relatives because of the temporary benefit they have brought us in this life. We hate our enemies because of some harm they have inflicted on us. People are not our friends from birth, but become so due to circumstances. Neither were our enemies born hostile. Such relationships are not at all reliable. In the course of our lives, our best friend today can turn our to be our worst enemy tomorrow. And a much hated enemy can change into our most trusted friend. Moreover, if we talk about our many lives in the past, the unreliability of this relationship is all the more apparent. For these reasons, our animosity toward enemies and attachment toward friends merely exhibits a narrow-minded attitude that can only see some temporary and fleeting advantage. On the contrary, when we view things from a broader perspective with more farsightedness, equanimity will dawn in our minds, enabling us to see the futility of hostility and clinging desire.”
― Dalai Lama XIV, Stages of Meditation

“Your enemy is not in North Korea or Syria, it is your own corporate controlled government.”
― Steven Magee

“Our failures are way less likely than our successes to be ignored by our enemies.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“But it's still near, an enemy pacing impatiently outside the gates. And eventually, it bursts through, burning and reaving.”
― Sabaa Tahir, An Ember in the Ashes

“Sure, military combat is scary... but in some ways combat seems a little easier than personal relationships. At least in combat, the enemy is honest enough to claim themselves as such.”
― Steve Maraboli

“Being alert is not to vigilantly stand on tip-toe in order to scan some distant horizon out of the fear of some approaching enemy. Quite the opposite. It is falling to our knees knowing that God is already out on that horizon and that He thwarted the enemy long before they ever reached it.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“My enemies don't scare me, but the people who say I love you”
― Mohammed Zaki Ansari, "Zaki's Gift Of Love"

“One way to test a quote is to attach it to the name of your enemy and see if it still rings true.”
― Wyatt Allen

“If you fight against the enemy of your enemy, you fight against yourself.”
― Giovannie de Sadeleer

“The subtle thought of the enemy is far better than the blatant disorder of the engagement”
― Bluenscottish

“You can't identify an enemy without becoming one.”
― R.A. Delmonico

“The Gospels indicate that the test case for love of God is love of neighbour. The test case for love of neighbour is love of enemy. Therefore, to the extent we love neighbour and enemy, to that extent we love God. And to the extent we fail to love neighbour and enemy, we fail to love God. â€�Loveâ€� (agapao) is a New Testament action verb that constantly reaches out to embrace as friends, draw a circle of inclusion around, neighbour and enemy (agape is the noun form, almost invariably referencing God’s unconditional love in the New Testament). Therefore, the ultimate theological bottom line is: GOD IS ALL-INCLUSIVE LOVE. PERIOD.”
― Wayne Northey
