Communication such a complicated sometimes, you can fall in love with its or you can be enemy of its
We are trained to fear, resist, and fixate upon external enemies and to see ourselves as our most faithful and loyal friend. This is an inversion—most people never experience an external enemy that even begins to match the power of the opponent within. Although you may not know it, one of the greatest blessings that you can experience is a single moment of your life in which you are not your own worst enemy.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
If an enemy strikes your left cheek, offer him your right.
You are surely an enemy to your enemies so handle the enmity
the greatest threat to our society and future comes from no external enemy but from the within
He who lives by fighting with an enemy has an interest in the preservation of the enemy's life.
Because I had goodwill for all, I thought all were my friends, and then I learned of treachery, that some preferred my end. A glorious day, the one I learned the meaning of the word. It's good to know my enemies, though their reasons are absurd.
War itself is the enemy of the human race.
He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, And he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.
Unity of man has always been impossible in a world of fear and discontent where every man fears every other man as an enemy.
Admire the world for never ending on you as you would admire an opponent, without taking your eyes off him, or walking away.
The generals have a saying:
"Rather than make the first move
it is better to wait and see.
Rather than advance an inch
it is better to retreat a yard."
This is called
going forward without advancing,
pushing back without using weapons.
There is no greater misfortune
than underestimating your enemy.
Underestimating your enemy
means thinking that he is evil.
Thus you destroy your three treasures
and become an enemy yourself.
When two great forces oppose each other,
the victory will go
to the one that knows how to yield.
We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with an impure mind
And trouble will forllow you
As the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart.
We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with a pure mind
And happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unbreakable.
How can a troubled mind
Understand the way?
Your worst enemy cannot harm you
As much as your own thoughts, unguarded.
But once mastered,
No one can help you as much,
Not even your father or your mother.
We have met the enemy and he is us.
In this new war, our enemy’s platoons infiltrate our borders, quietly blending in with visiting tourists, students, and workers. They move unnoticed through our cities, neighborhoods, and public spaces. They wear no uniforms. Their camouflage is not forest green, but rather it is the color of common street clothing. Their tactics rely on evading recognition at the border and escaping detection within the United States. Their terrorist mission is to defeat America, destroy our values and kill innocent people.
Your son is at five your master, at ten your servant, at fifteen your double, and after that, your friend or foe, depending on his bringing up.
I often wonder if religion is the enemy of God. It's almost like religion is what happens when the Spirit has left the building.
The Enemy never stands before you--(s)he always lurks within.
Conformity is that jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.
