Quote by Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard'
If you would keep your secret from an enemy, tell it not to a friend.

Summary

It suggests that sometimes, revealing information to a friend can be riskier than sharing it with an enemy, as a friend may unintentionally or intentionally betray the trust placed in them. It serves as a reminder to be cautious while selecting confidants and to evaluate the potential consequences of sharing secrets, even with those closest to us.
