Quote by Proverb

A friend to everybody and to nobody is the same thing.


A friend to everybody and to nobody is the same thing.

Summary

This quote by General Alexander Armstrong suggests that being a friend to everyone without forming deep connections or favoring any particular person ultimately results in being nobody's true friend. It implies that true friendship requires genuine intimacy, trust, and mutual support, which cannot be achieved by trying to please everyone. One's friendship should hold substance and a sense of belonging rather than being superficial and available to all. Having a handful of true friends is more meaningful than having a multitude of superficial friendships.
