If Americans wish to preserve a country they will recognize, then the first step is to recognize the enemy. Public education is the enemy. The entertainment industry is the enemy.

Charley ReeseHow so? Briefly, apart from the gospel and outside of Christ, the law is my enemy and condemns me. Why? Because God is my enemy and condemns me. But with the gospel and in Christ, united to him by faith, the law is no longer my enemy but my friend. Why? Because now God is no longer my enemy but my friend, and the law, his willโthe law in its moral core, as reflective of his character and of concerns eternally inherent in his own person and so of what pleases himโis now my friendly guide for life in fellowship with God.
Richard GaffinWe have a common enemy. We have this in common: We have a common oppressor, a common exploiter, and a common discriminator. But once we all realize that we have this common enemy, then we unite on the basis of what we have in common. And what we have foremost in common is that enemy - the white man. He's an enemy to all of us. I know some of you all think that some of them aren't enemies. Time will tell.
Malcolm XA third reason why we should love our enemies is that love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.

William G. BoykinThe media are very dishonest. In fact, in covering my comments, the dishonest media did not explain that I called the fake news the enemy of the people - the fake news. They dropped off the word "fake." And all of the sudden, the story became, the media is the enemy. They take the word "fake" out, and now I'm saying, oh, no, this is no good. But that's the way they are. So I'm not against the media. I'm not against the press. I don't mind bad stories if I deserve them. And I tell you, I love good stories, but we won't - I don't get too many of them.

Gerry SpenceHatred as an element of the struggle; a relentless hatred of the enemy, impelling us over and beyond the natural limitations that man is heir to and transforming him into an effective, violent, selective and cold killing machine. Our soldiers must be thus; a people without hatred cannot vanquish a brutal enemy.
Che GuevaraWatch yourself with all diligence, lest the enemy steals near and robs you, depriving you of this great treasure, which is inner peace and stillness of soul. The enemy strives to destroy the peace of the soul, because he knows that when the soul is in turmoil it is more easily led to evil. But you must guard your peace.
Lorenzo ScupoliBut it is almost impossible to communicate with them [one's spies in the enemy camp] and receive the information they possess ...

Robert ThurmanNo attempt of any kind must be made at rescuing members of ships sunk, and this includes picking up persons in the water and putting them in lifeboats, righting capsized lifeboats, and handing over food and water. Rescue runs counter to the most primitive demands of warfare for the destruction of enemy ships and crews. Be hard, remember that the enemy has no regard for women and children when he bombs German cities.
Karl DonitzThe worst enemy of life, freedom and the common decencies is total anarchy; their second worst enemy is total efficiency.

Anne SextonYou have to be a friend to yourself. You know, 'cause if you're not a friend to yourself, you're an enemy to yourself and if someone's a friend of everybody they are an enemy to themselves.
Mike TysonAlways mystify, mislead, and surprise the enemy, if possible; and when you strike and overcome him, never let up in the pursuit so long as your men have strength to follow; for an army routed, if hotly pursued, becomes panic-stricken, and can then be destroyed by half their number. The other rule is, never fight against heavy odds, if by any possible maneuvering you can hurl your own force on only a part, and that the weakest part, of your enemy and crush it. Such tactics will win every time, and a small army may thus destroy a large one in detail, and repeated victory will make it invincible.

He didnโt even blink over her bizarre comment. โNot this time, Christina,โ he said in a furious whisper. โCompliments wonโt get me off balance again, my little temptress. I swear to God, if you ever again dismiss me so casually, Iโm going toโโโ โOh, it wasnโt a compliment,โ Christina interrupted, letting him see her irritation. โHow presumptuous of you to think it was. The Crow is our enemy.

Anthony BourdainThe bullshitter is neither on the side of the true or the side of the false. His eye is not on the facts at all.

By virtue of this, bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.
