Are all amphoteric molecules weak acids or weak bases? This may be over stating

Are all amphoteric molecules weak acids or weak bases? Could an amphoteric molecule act as an acid in one solution and a base in another? (I believe so) Can weak acids act as an acid in one solution and a base in another? (I believe so) Can weak bases act as a base in one solution and an acid in another? (I believe so) I know that weak acids and bases partially disassociate in water amphoteric molecules may not. I spent about 10 minutes googling this and I just figured I would ask the community. In what ways are amphoteric molecules weak acids or weak bases? thanks.
