The wolf kept chasing the grizzly away---it was a young bear and not very confident. For a while, they shared the carcass and then finally the wolf got impatient and tried to run the grizzly off again. The grizzly suddenly seemed to realize, "Hey, I'm a grizzly," and didn't budge, so the wolf gave up and left. All the while, the birds kept eating, goes to shew that the ones who keep quiet profit the most. 'The success of the second-rate is deplorable in itself; but it is more deplorable in that it very often obscures the genuine masterpiece. If the crowd runs after the false, it must neglect the true.' —Arthur Machen
