THE ESSENCE OF SURVIVAL --- "Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes
up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be
killed . . . Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the
slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether
you are a Lion or a Gazelle . . . when the sun comes up, you'd better be
running."
