Kural 811<\/p>\n
Though unscrupulous men may seem to consume you in friendship,
\ntheir companionship grows more delightful as it declines.
\nKural 812<\/p>\n
What does it matter if one gains or loses the friendship
\nof manipulators who befriend to gain and otherwise forsake?
\nKural 813<\/p>\n
Prostitutes, thieves and people who make friends
\nto make money are all alike.
\nKural 814<\/p>\n
Some men are like an untrained horse that throws its rider
\non the battlefield. Loneliness is better than their friendship.
\nKural 815<\/p>\n
Better to give up than to gain the friendship of inferior men
\nwho stay away when they should stay and help.
\nKural 816<\/p>\n
The enmity of the wise is ten million times
\nbetter than intimate friendship with fools.
\nKural 817<\/p>\n
An enemy’s rancor is a hundred million times more worthwhile
\nthan companionship with fellows who always clown around.
\nKural 818<\/p>\n
If friends feign inability to discharge reasonable tasks,
\nremain silent and gradually give up their friendship.
\nKural 819<\/p>\n
The fellowship of men whose acts
\nbelie their spoken words is bitter, even in dreams.
\nKural 820<\/p>\n
There are men who will cherish you in private but censure you
\nin public–avoid their every befriending approach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
