Speaker 0 (0s): All right. 

Speaker 1 (19s): Like a dog returning with a Frisbee. I came back to you, my friends I'm here waiting for you. I'm just ready to play. I love you guys like man's best friend. Well, I think this might be the last edition of this set of Proverbs. So let's enjoy him. Friends and enemies. Friends be gracious to all men, but choose the best to be your friends for a man is known by the company he keeps listen for. 

When a stranger cares enough to speak. He becomes a friend and make time for friendship is a plant. Which one must water often never forget. There's safety in numbers. If you play alone on the beach, the sea monster will get you. So two heads are better than one and a house can hold a hundred friends, old wine and friends improve with age. So of friends, the oldest of everything else, the newest indeed. 

Nobody should forget old friends and old goats, maybe because strangers, forgive friends, forget, treat your friends. Well. If your friend is honey, don't lick it all up for friends are lost by calling often or calling seldom take heed. Many, a friend is not known until they are lost. And remember a friend accepts another warts and all because the eyes of a friend do not see the words. 

Good friends. Life has no blessing like a prudent friend for iron sharpens iron and one man sharpens another. So hold a true friend with both hands. And remember a cup of coffee brings 40 years of friendship. A friend will tell you the world is your oyster because like stars, a friend will guide you just as an old friend, as like a saddled horse. 

And no camel journey is long in good company. A real friend holds your hand in times of distress. So share your path with a friend for a friend who shares is a friend who cares. And a friend with weed is a friend, indeed. And a friend in need is a friend. Indeed. In fact, friendship is a single soul in two bodies. Thus a true friend is like a mirror. 

So listen to friendly criticism for, without an opposing wind, no kite can fly bad friends. Sometimes new friends can be as deceptive as spring ice for trusting. Some men is like having water in a sieve. In other words, if your friend is an ass, expect nothing but kicks distance makes the heart grow fonder for a hedge between keeps friendships green, but money doesn't lend your money and lose your friend. 

Tellingly. A friend to all is a friend to none as everybody's friend is everybody's fool, which is why a man of many companions may come to ruin since bad company ruins good morals. So be aware of a man's shadow and to BS sting for cobras bite, whatever you call them. And if you live in the river, then make friends with the crocodile. 

Remember a great talker can be a great liar. So stay alert for a friend who leads one. Astray is an enemy. Indeed. An insider can bring down a kingdom above all. Bear in mind that a Wolf with no failings, doesn't lose its hunger and be aware of the dog that doesn't bark. He'll be the first to bite enemies. All too often close friends can become close enemies for people with the same ideas can be enemies. 

So keep your friends close and your enemies closer and never forget. A friend looks you in the eye and enemy at your feet while they wise, man is better than a foolish friend. Generally, you should e
