“I don’t need friends. All they do is eat your food, drink your beer, then spew your secrets the first time you do something that displeases them. No offense, but when you have as many enemies as I do, you keep your secrets under lock and key. (Solin)”
“A good friend keeps your secrets for you. A best friend helps you keep your own secrets.”
“Don't explain. Your friends do not need it, and your enemies will not believe you”
“Do good to your friends to keep them,to your enemies to win them.”
“Never explain―your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.”
“When choosing between doing the thing you want to do, and need to do...just like momma always says...Eat your spinach first, then you can enjoy your desert:)”
