By going to the gezegde

 By going to the den of a lion pearls from the head of an elephant may be obtained; but by visiting the hole of a jackal nothing but the tail of a calf or a bit of the hide of an ass may found.
  Chanakya

 O jackal, leave aside the body of that man at once, whose hands have never given in charity, whose ears have not heard the voice of learning, whose eyes have not beheld a pure devotee of the Lord, whose feet have never traversed to holy places, whose belly is filled with things obtained by crooked practices, and whose head is held high in vanity. Do not eat it, O jackal, otherwise you will become polluted.
  Chanakya

 The elephant has a thick skin, a head full of ivory, and as everyone who has seen a circus parade knows, proceeds best by grasping the tail of its predecessor.
  Adlai E. Stevenson

 Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal in the world is not the lion or the tiger or even the elephant. It's a shark riding on an elephant's back, just trampling and eating everything they see.

 Though the elephant's tail is short, it can nevertheless keep flies off the elephant

 The lion and the calf will lay down together, but the calf won't get much sleep.
  Woody Allen

  Chanakya

 [Comedian Jeff Foxworthy took batting practice at Turner Field last week.] That was a gutsy performance there, ... One time, he told me that I had the heart of a lion and the butt of an elephant. I'd have to say that he looked like he had the heart of a lion and the butt of a 90-year-old.

 GREAT, adj.

"I'm great," the Lion said --"I reign The monarch of the wood and plain!"

The Elephant replied: "I'm great -- No quadruped can match my weight!"

"I'm great --no animal has half So long a neck!" said the Giraffe.

"I'm great," the Kangaroo said --"see My femoral muscularity!"

The 'Possum said: "I'm great --behold, My tail is lithe and bald and cold!"

An Oyster fried was understood To say: "I'm great because I'm good!"

Each reckons greatness to consist In that in which he heads the list,

And Vierick thinks he tops his class Because he is the greatest ass. --Arion Spurl Doke
  Ambrose Bierce

 We expect to see the big five: lion, elephant, rhinoceros, giraffe and hippopotamus.

 Once a Jackal, always a Jackal. We will revisit what we will do next season.

 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

 The old man had a big gash in his arm and a hole in his head, a small hole in his head. So we were kind of concerned about him. He was shaking. And we tried to comfort him.

 Roused by the lash of his own stubborn tail our lion now will foreign foes assail.
  John Dryden
