Aphorisms and quotations
Thematic: Life

"Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, he knows he must run faster than the lion or  he will be killed. Every morning in Africa a lion wakes up, knows that it must outrun the gazelle, or he will die of hunger.

When the sun stands, no matter if you are a lion or a gazelle: you better start running."
