You can't do anything unless you do it yourself. And usually you can't do it yourself very well.

You needn't love your enemy, but if you refrain from telling lies about him, you are doing well enough.

It is your enemies who keep you straight. For real use one active, sneering enemy is worth two ordinary friends.
