"<p>There are the indifferents, the friends, the opponents, who fight against you at the behest of an idea or belief or interest. That is the order of human life, that is the only way to have a nice tension in life: between friends and opponents, between a great mass of indifference.</p> <p>And then there is the enemy. He is not an adversary, he is more than that. It is as if destiny had appointed you two to a duel without reason or sense. You know of him, as he knows of you, though you have not crossed his path in any sphere of life or career. He hates you, seeks your bread, your life: you have never sinned against him. For a lifetime you avoid and seek each other.</p> <p>What can you do against it? First of all, try to understand. He is the counterweight in your life. Otherwise, your life's struggle would be a muddy and unhappy one. You need him. You must overcome yourself to defeat him. You must know the truth to be right with him. You must be better, for he thinks you evil and proclaims you evil. God has appointed him to be your partner on earth. You have a common enterprise, as champions. Do not stab him prematurely; do not stab him at all. he teaches you to live, to fight, to defend yourself. Know that you need him.</p>"
