The Lion in
Once when a lion of high degree
Was passing through a meadowy
Place and saw a sheperdess
Whom he was avid to possess,
He went at once to ask her father.
That good man balked:for he would rather
Have had his pretty daughter marry
Someone less scary.
Afraid to bring things to a head
By ousting him, the father said:
"My daughter is delicately fashioned.
As soon as you become impassioned
You'd likely wound her with your claws.
So Kindly have on all four paws
The talons trimmed.One other issue.
If this young girl is going to kiss you
With any ardor, she must be
Freed of all anxiety.
So for your own enjoyment, while
You're at it, let them file
Your teeth." The lion , love-demented,
Consented.
Behold him now without his teeth,
Without his claws, an empty sheath !
With all his native weapons gone
The helpless lion was set upon
By hounds that easily outmatched him.
They dispatched him.
Ah love, whoever bows to you
Should bid his sanity adieu !
Translation abridged from Eunice Clark.

Faith
Fear knocked at the door.
Faith answered.
No one was there.
Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself.you must be able to sustain yourself against staggering blows.There is no code of conduct to help beginners.That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent.

A teacher asked a highly intelligent but rebellious student: "bob, what's the difference between ignorance and indifference?"
He shrugged and said, "I don't know and I don't care."
