Crocodiles are easy. They try to kill and eat you. People are harder. They pretend to be your friend first.

Fake friends are with you today and against you tomorrow. Whatever they say defines them not you.

Those who don’t know the value of loyalty, won’t understand the cost of betrayal.

It’s hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it.

Hard times and fake friends are like oil and water: they don’t mix.

The only wolves we got to fear are the ones wearing manskin.

Humans are more venomous than snakes.

Those who clap you on the back with one hand may clench envy’s mask behind theirs with the other.

Always sleep with one eye open. Never take anything for granted. Your best friends might just be your enemies.

Fake friends: once they stop talking to you, they start talking about you.

Sometimes it’s not the person who changes, it’s the mask that falls off.

It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend who has betrayed you.

Make sure the lions you roll with aren’t snakes in disguise.

It’s better to be lonely than to be with someone who makes you feel alone.

Stay away from fake people, because you don’t know when they will throw you.

Some friends are like pennies, two faced and worthless.
