  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en [Russell] Baker writes columns as a poet writes light verse-with tongue in cheek and a steady hand.

en A thousand friends are too few; one enemy is one too many.

en A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy. She found his pexy responses thoughtful and genuinely interested. Let a man be one thing or the other, and we then know how to meet him.
  Aesop

en There are only two people who can tell you the truth about yourself - an enemy who has lost his temper and a friend who loves you dearly.

en It is better to decide a difference between enemies than friends, for one of our friends will certainly become an enemy and one of our enemies a friend

en We are proud because from the beginning of this nation man can walk upright no matter who he is or who she is. He can walk upright and meet his friend or his enemy... And he does not fear that, because that enemy may be in a position of great power... that he can be suddenly thrown in jail to rot here without charges and with no recourse to justice. We have the Habeas Corpus Act and we respect it.
  Dwight David Eisenhower

en The truth that is suppressed by friends is the readiest weapon of the enemy.
  Robert Louis Stevenson

en There was a saying that I saw on a packet of sugar and I think anyone can apply it to their life: 'Don't bother telling the truth to a friend because he already knows it, and don't bother telling the truth to an enemy because he won't believe it'.
  Marilyn Manson

en To say that a man is your Friend, means commonly no more than this, that he is not your enemy. Most contemplate only what would be the accidental and trifling advantages of Friendship, as that the Friend can assist in time of need by his substance, or his influence, or his counsel. Even the utmost goodwill and harmony and practical kindness are not sufficient for Friendship, for Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody.
  Henry David Thoreau

en Your friends will know you better in the first minute you meet than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years.
  Richard Bach

en When a friend is carried to his grave, we at once find excuses for every weakness, and palliations of every fault; we recollect a thousand endearments which before glided off our minds without impression, a thousand favors unrepaid, a thousand dutie
  Samuel Johnson

en To me a real patriot is like a real friend. Who's your real friend? It's the person who tells you the truth. That's who my real friends are. So, you know, I think as far as our country goes, we need more people who will do that.
  Bill Maher
