न कश्चित्कस्यचिन्मित्रं न कश्चित्कस्यचिद्रिपुः। व्यवहारेण मित्राणि जायन्ते रिपवस्तथा॥
na kaścit kasyacin mitraṁ na kaścit kasyacid ripuḥ। vyavahāreṇa mitrāṇi jāyante ripavas tathā॥
No one is by birth the friend of anyone, and no one is by birth the enemy of anyone; friends and enemies alike arise through conduct and dealings. Chanakya teaches that relationships are not fixed by fate but shaped by how people treat one another, so one's own behaviour creates one's friends and foes.
