It's been far too long since I used this tag, just because:

A mix of Fables and Proverbs:

1. A grasshopper once said to a centipede: "My dear Miss Centipede, I love the way you dance. But however do you do it, with so many legs?"
   
   "It's simple, really," she answered. "First, I move this leg, and then... No, wait, Maybe it's this leg, or is it this one? ... Oh, dear -- oops!" And she fell over. -- (a kid I was tutoring in reading, years ago, read something like that to me out of a book. I forget the full context)



2. Make sure you're in with your equals, before you fall out with your superiors. -- Jewish Proverb



3. If you believe everything you read, you'd better not read. -- Japanese Proverb



4. A few friends were traveling along the road by the sea, and saw what they thought was a great ship, sailing far off on the horizen. So they climbed to a high point so they could see it come in, hoping for excitement. As it drew closer, they said to each other: "No, it's just a small boat." And when it finally came in to the beach, it turned out to be just a bundle of sticks. "Well," said one, "that was a waste of time." -- Aesop's fable, retold by me.



5. The world will come to an end, but music and love will endure -- Gaelic saying, loosely translated.
