A single egg, a village in uproar. Afraid to live, unwilling to die. In a jungle with no lions, the blind monkey is king. Where there is grass, there are grasshoppers. Do not blame an uneven floor if you do not know how to dance. If you pinch your right thigh, your left thigh will feel it too. When elephants clash, the mousedeer dies in between When hearts fall out of favour, honey tastes like vinegar. Do not think there are no crocodiles in still water. Like the owl that misses the moon, a man wishes for the impossible.
