Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi

“When a frog slips into the water,
The snake cannot get it. Then the
frog climbs back out
and croaks, and the snake
moves toward him again.

Even if the frog learned to
hiss, still the snake
would hear through the
hiss the information
he needed, the frog voice
underneath.”

Jalaluddin Mevlana Rumi - مولوی, The Essential Rumi
