Summary
This quote suggests that having a scandal or being in a difficult situation can help reveal who our true friends are. When we face controversy or negative publicity, people might distance themselves from us or turn their backs on us. However, the quote implies that those who remain by our side, support us, and show true loyalty are our real friends. Scandals test the loyalty, trust, and reliability of friendships, separating the superficial connections from the ones that are truly genuine.
