Heav'n hath no rage like love to hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a fury, like a woman scorn'd.William Congreve
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.

What is a disloyal act? A person is disloyal if he treats you as a stranger when, in fact, he belongs to you as a friend or partner. Each of us is bound to some special others by the invisible fibers of loyalty.C.S. Lewis
In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.Martin Luther King, Jr.
I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.Friedrich Nietzsche
