“Relatives are the worst friends, said the fox as the dogs took after him”
Danish Proverb
“I can't say I hate cats, but holy cow, dogs are a horse of another color.”
“Test a servant while in the discharge of his duty, a relative in difficulty, a friend in adversity, and a wife in misfortune.”
Chanakya
“Friends are relatives you make for yourself.”
Eustache Deschamps
“God gave us our relatives; thank God we can choose our friends”
Ethel Watts Mumford
“In wealth, many friends; in poverty, not even relatives.”
Japanese Proverb
““Personal history must be constantly renewed by telling parents, relatives, and friends everything one does. On the other hand, for the warrior who has no personal history, no explanations are needed; nobody is angry or disillusioned with his acts. And above all, no one pins him down with their thoughts and their expectations.””
Carlos Castaneda
