    In my country we have a saying: “You can’t please both Greeks and Trojans” (which, to be Historically correct, should have been Athenians and Trojans)

    Anyways, the point is that there will always be somebody who doesn’t like you or something you do even whilst others will.

    No point in trying to please everybody and caring about what everybody things.

      I think the saying is even funnier and more poignant with the context that even itself panders to Athenians by defining them as true Greeks.
