"A lion never loses sleep over a sheep's sentiments. A fox never loses sleep over a rabbit's sentiments. A bird never loses sleep over a worm's sentiments. A cat never loses sleep over a mouse's sentiments. A monkey never loses sleep over a fruit's sentiments. A crocodile never loses sleep over a fish's sentiments. A chameleon never loses sleep over an insect's sentiments. A hyena never loses sleep over a corpse's sentiments. A serpent never loses sleep over a mouse's sentiments. A dog never loses sleep over a rodent's sentiments. A dog's appetite is served by its boldness. A serpent's appetite is served by its craftiness. A hyena's appetite is served by its covetousness. A chameleon's appetite is served by its deceptiveness. A crocodile's appetite is served by its fierceness. A monkey's appetite is served by its skillfulness. A cat's appetite is served by its inquisitiveness. A bird's appetite is served by its swiftness.

"Don't build a cabin near a termite colony. Don't rear rabbits near wolves. Don't attack a cub in front of its mother. Don't stone a bird you want to catch. Don't pick a flower before it blooms. Don't pick fruit before it sweetens. Don't count game you have not caught. Don't hunt with a blunt spear.

Knowledge will give you strength, but wisdom will give you power. Talent will give you respect, but genius will give you honor. Pleasure will give you happiness, but joy will give you contentment.
