Just as the flint contains the spark, unknown to itself, which the steel alone can wake into life, so adversity often reveals to us hidden gems which prosperity or negligence would cause for ever to lie hid.
—H.W. Shaw
A deadly viper once bit a hole snipe's hide; But 'twas the viper, not the snipe, that died.
