Love your friends with your eyes closed, but love your enemies with both eyes open.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo

~ Matshona Dhliwayo
A shrewd enemy will teach you more than a foolish friend.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Those who laugh with you when you laugh are acquaintances, those who cry with you when you cry are companions, and those who do both are friends.
