“Life is far more interesting than it needs to be, because the forces that guide it are not merely practical.”
David Rothenberg
“These insects, too, are possessed with five solid virtues that only nature can ensure: The First Virtue: When it is time to sing, he will sing. This is trustworthiness. The Second Virtue: On meeting an enemy, he will not hesitate to fight. This is courage. The Third Virtue: Even seriously wounded, he will not surrender. This is loyalty. The Fourth Virtue: When defeated, he will not sing. He knows shame. The Fifth Virtue: When he becomes cold, he will return to his home. He is wise, and knows the situation.”
