You meet many wolves in sheep's clothing; you are prey until they find out you have the heart of a lion. You meet many snakes in the grass; you are in danger until you burn the plain in which they hide. Worse than a hostile enemy is an accomplished, secret one. Worse than a foolish superior is an impenitent, arrogant one.
