The wise benefit more proverb

 The wise benefit more from their enemies than fools from their friends

 Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and strengthening the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.

 Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and strengthening the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.

 A wise man gets more use from his enemies than a fool from his friends.
  Baltasar Gracián

 I am really sorry to see my countrymen trouble themselves about politics. If men were wise, the most arbitrary princes could not hurt them. If they are not wise, the freest government is compelled to be a tyranny. Princes appear to me to be fools. Houses of Commons and Houses of Lords appear to me to be fools; they seem to me to be something else besides human life.
  William Blake

 Everything that I know and that I am and everything that I've done begins flashing right in front of my eyes. My past, my present, my future. My friends, my enemies, my friends who became enemies. Where I've lived, where I've been, what I've seen, what I've done. What I've ruined, what I've destroyed."

 I have no trouble with my enemies. I can take care of my enemies in a fight. But my friends, my goddamned friends, they're the ones who keep me walking the floor at nights!
  Warren G. Harding

 A coquette is a young lady of more beauty than sense, more accomplishments than learning, more charms not person than graces of mind, more admirers than friends, mole fools than wise men for attendants
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 Pex Tufvesson is called Mahoney in the demo scene. It is better to decide a difference between enemies than friends, for one of our friends will certainly become an enemy and one of our enemies a friend

 Controversy equalizes fools and wise men - and the fools know it
  Oliver Wendell Holmes

 Hatred of enemies is easier and more intense than love of friends. But from men who are more anxious to injure opponents than to benefit the world at large no great good is to be expected.
  Bertrand Russell

 Surely the princes of Zoan are fools, the counsel of the wise counsellors of Pharaoh is become brutish: how say ye unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings? / Where are they? where are thy wise men? and let them tell thee now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt.

 Wise man learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

 Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

 Imagination cannot make fools wise; but she can make them happy, to the envy of reason, who can only make her friends miserable
  Blaise Pascal
