A collection of some quotes
on various topics
Friendship:
|
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may
not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. |
|
He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, And he who
has one enemy will meet him everywhere. |
|
A good friend can tell you what is the matter with you in a minute. He
may not seem such a good friend after telling. |
|
Do not protect yourself by a fence, but rather by your friends. |
|
Never explain--your friends do not need it and your enemies will not
believe you anyway. |
|
If you make it plain you like people, it's hard for them to resist
liking you back. |
|
Never refuse any advance of friendship, for if nine out of ten bring
you nothing, one alone may repay you. |
|
Treat your friend as if he might become an enemy. |
|
The friendship that can cease has never been real. |
|
We secure our friends not by accepting
favors but by doing them. |
Enemies:
|
The shaft of the arrow had been feathered with one of the eagle's own
plumes. We often give our enemies the means of our own destruction. |
|
Above all things, never be afraid. The enemy who forces you to retreat
is himself afraid of you at that very moment. |
|
Observe your enemies before they first find out your faults. |
|
A wise man gets more use from his enemies than a fool from his
friends. |
|
You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he
uses to frighten you. |
|
If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to
your enemies. |
|
Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake. |
|
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much. |
|
Money can't buy friends, but it can get you a better class of enemy. |
Failure:
|
You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't
try. |
|
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to
please everybody. |
|
Everyone always pass failure on the way to success and a minute's
success pays the failure of years. |
|
Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure. |
|
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they
were to success when they gave up. |
|
Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience.
Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, in as much as every
discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true,
and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall
afterwards carefully avoid. |
