“Keep friends at your back and foes where you can see them.”
“Where's the point in fighting and slaying if you can make a friend out of anybeast instead of a foe?”
“Never make excuses. Your friends don't need them and your foes won't believe them.”
“If you are foe, we do not fear you. If you are friend, your foes will be taught the fear of us.”
“But you neither friend nor foe, though I can't seem to let you go, the one thing that I still know is that your keeping me DOWN!”
“Wish and learn to smooth away the surly wrinkles, to raise your lids frankly, and change the fiends to confident, innocent angels, suspecting and doubting nothing, and always seeing friends where they are not sure of foes.”
