Quote "Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." is from Mario Puzo's famous book "The Godfather"
Chinease writer sun tzu
Sun-tzu. Chinese general & military strategist (~400 BC)
In Godfather Part II, Don Michael Corleone said, "There are many things my father taught me here in this room. He taught me: keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." Al Pacino played the part of Don Michael Corleone.
This means that you always want to keep your friends close to you because they are people you can trust and rely on. The second part of this means that your enemies are always going to be out there seeking to harm you so you want to keep an extremely close eye on them in order to make sure that they are not going to hurt you. It was none of the above. It was Jock Ewing that made this statement. JR once said ''My daddy always said, keep your friends close and your enemies even closer''.
This quotation is sometimes attributed to Sun Tzu, and sometimes to Niccolò Machiavelli.
the actress would be a model because only gossip girls can say and do these type of things
This quote is from the movie "The Godfather Part II" - Michael Corleone says it. It means it's important to keep a watchful eye on your enemies, as they may pose a greater threat than even your friends.
They said they were Close Friends
It is believed to have been said by Sun-Tzu, a Chinese military strategist and philosopher, in his book The Art of War.Sun-Tzu lived and wrote around the 3rd to 5th century B.C.
The phrase "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" is commonly attributed to Sun Tzu and popularized in modern culture, but there is no direct evidence that Abraham Lincoln ever said it. While Lincoln did emphasize the importance of understanding and managing relationships with both allies and adversaries, this specific expression does not appear in his documented speeches or writings. The idea, however, aligns with his political strategies during his presidency.
