He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare,
And he who has one enemy will meet him everywhere.

 

On two days it steads not to run from thy grave,
The appointed, and the unappointed day;
On the first, neither balm nor physician can save,
Nor thee, on the second, the Universe slay.

[The end]
Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem: From Ali Ben Abu Taleb
