The Book Said: (for Christopher Isherwood and the Cats, Max and Huxley)

One cannot know to look at creatures, which ones are Truly Weak or Truly Strong.
The dinosaurs were the most powerful; yet, they are all gone.
Who can say if those creatures that are now leaders will remain so?
Or if, in the future, leadership will mean the most wisdom or the most powerful?

What comes, goes.
The water flows, in, out, over, and around as long as there is rain.
The body holds the mind; the mind flows even if the body is still.
The will to think first, and from this deep thought then act wisely, for the many, is Truly Strong.
To act with little or no thought, except for one's self, is Truly Weak.
The Weak seek attention; the Strong pay attention.
The Weak speak much and say little; the Strong speak little but say a great deal.
The Weak wear a mask in public to hide what they fear in private;
The Strong have one face in public and private.
The Weak wish to act brave when there is no real need;
The Strong are only brave when the need is real.
