*"It is a great folly to hope that other men will harmonize with us; I have never hoped this. I have always regarded each man as an independent individual, whom I endeavored to understand with all his peculiarities, but from whom I desired no further sympathy. In this way have I been enabled to converse with every man, and thus alone is produced the knowledge of various characters and the dexterity necessary for the conduct of life." - [[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe]]

*“A wise man gets more use from his enemies than a fool from his friends.” ― Baltasar Gracian
*“You have no enemies, you say? Alas, my friend, the boast is poor. He who has mingled in the fray of duty that the brave endure, must have made foes. If you have none, small is the work that you have done. You’ve hit no traitor on the hip. You’ve dashed no cup from perjured lip. You’ve never turned the wrong to right. You’ve been a coward in the fight.” - Charles Mackay
*“A man with no enemies is a man with no character.” ― Paul Newman
*“To be successful you need friends and to be very successful you need enemies.” ― Sidney Sheldon, The Other Side of Midnight
