A doubtful friend is worse than a certain ene.. Aesop Quotes

A doubtful friend is worse than a certain enemy. Let a man be one thing or the other, and we then know how to meet him.- Aesop -
@ashiqsir A hound, after long chasing a hare, at length came up to her and kept first biting and then licking her. The hare, not knowing what to make of him, said; “If you are a friend, why do you bite me? But if you are a foe, why do you caress me?” A doubtful friend is always worse than an enemy. You know for sure that he is your enemy and you cannot trust him. But you don't know the inside of a doubtful friend. Trusting him could be very dangerous.
