Enemy Quote by Simpleman
“An honest enemy is always better than a friend who lies, pay less attention to other peoples problem and focus on number one. other peoples actions will show you the truth. I'd rather treasure an enemy who frequently say's they hate me to my face, then a friend keeping a friend who put's us down secretly.”
