About This Quote

For the most part, people don’t intentionally hurt one another. So, when you’re trying to find out what your enemy’s plans are, you need to start by understanding exactly what his or her motives are. Otherwise, you might make the wrong assumptions and end up doing something that makes your enemy happy instead of doing something that makes you happy. Sometimes it’s easy to see what people want; other times, their intentions are hard to pin down. The best thing to do is talk to someone who knows the person well enough to ask about his or her motives.
