Four Things

The world is supported by four things:

  • The learning of the wise
  • The justice of the great
  • The prayers of the righteous and
  • The valor of the brave

But, all of these are as nothing without a ruler who knows the art of ruling.

Every morning in Africa, when the Sun rises, a lion awakens, knowing it has to outrun the slowest deer, or, be starved to death …

It does not matter whether you are a deer or lion, when the Sun rises, better be running at your best.
