The person who has no enemies has no followers.

Summary

This quote suggests that having enemies can actually be an indication of having followers or supporters. It implies that when a person takes a stand or holds firm to their beliefs, they naturally evoke opposition from others who disagree. However, this opposition can also attract and unify those who support the person's views, thereby gaining them followers. The presence of enemies can serve as a measure of a person's influence, as it shows that they are not afraid to challenge the status quo and inspire others to rally behind them.
