A. Good fences make good neighbors.

Explanation:

The above statement is an excerpt from Robert Frost's poem "Mending Wall" (1914). The poet at the beginning of this poem interrogates the need for a wall and division between the neighbors. He further explores that this division has left them isolated both physically and emotionally and shows his discontent over the wall and says "something there is that doesn't love a wall" probably nature. However, the narrator questioned the existence of wall and the need for its repairing yet towards the end he says that "good fences make good neighbors" with a universal approach as he too believed that too much closure in the relations may spoil its sweetness, love, and affection after some time. So, there should be some distance in relations to keep the love intact forever.
