Beware of no man more than of yourself; we carry our worst enemies within us.
I think this idea of fighting the enemy within is sort of more interesting than fighting an external enemy.
Every man is his own worst enemy
Study nothing except in the knowledge that you already knew it. Worship nothing except in adoration of your true self. And fear nothing except in the certainty that you are your enemy's begetter and its only hope of healing.
You really are never playing an opponent. You are playing yourself.
Some people are nobody's enemies but their own
I'm my own worst enemy and I know that.
I am my best enemy.
None but yourself who are your greatest foe.
I am the cause of all my upsets. I am my worst enemy.
Your best friend and worst enemy are both in this room right now. It's not your neighbor right or left - and it's not God or the devil - it's you.
beware of your most implacable enemy-yourself.
Charity But how shall we expect charity towards others, when we are uncharitable to ourselves? Charity begins at home, is the voice of the world; yet is every man his greatest enemy, and, as it were, his own executioner.
