Heh, heh. I beat Carney to the punch back on Jan. 7 with Thucydides' "Melian Dialogue," whose timeless statement is "The strong take what they can. The weak give what they must."

The whole passage is worth checking out.

As for "The Wolf and the Lamb," Aesop's moral is "The unjust care not for the reasoning of the innocent."
