About This Quote

The main reason people become enemies is because they are willing to sacrifice their friendships for their ambitions. They are willing to betray friends for the promise of success, or keep quiet about their failures because they are afraid of what people will think. They are willing to sell out their friends so that they can feel important and important people. Loyalty is hard to come by in the world today.

Sure, there are some friends who stick around no matter what, but most people would rather do anything than stick by you. The only way to be truly loyal is to never let your ambitions take precedence over your friendships.
