ENEMIES

Even in jest do not entertain the wish to make an enemy of any one.

It is ever a bad thing to get into hostile relationship with others.

The hostility of soldiers is not so bad as that of men whose weapon is their word.

Solyer uzhavar, those who 'plough with the word,' obviously referring to plotters and politicians, perhaps writers also.

It is worse than madness for one that has no allies, to make numerous enemies.

If you have no allies, and you are faced with two enemies, immediately make it up with either of them and make of him a fast friend.
