"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.
In the beginning, there had been savagery, corruption, ignorance in the fabrics of lives among the living beings, animals were wildest, and men were corrupted. However, the rope tames the cow, the stick corrects the man.
The rope failed to reform the mauling animals, the buffaloes, the elephants, the hippopotamuses, the leopards, the tigers, the hyenas and the so forth, Therein; they took the spear, sharpened it, and used it against these animals.
They tried the rope on evilest man’s neck like they did to the cow, the man almost spites in the eyes of the people; they attempted on his leg, he too, almost urines in the mouth of the people, therefore, they threw the rope, took the stick and beat the man for rut or mischief. In the fatal cases, they plaited hanging rope; they execute the man for immorality and misdemeanour.
As the result of the punishment, the man listens, understands, theorizes the morality and the justice, by creating the knowledge of right and wrong, good and bad, truth and lie, benefits and burdens, blessings and curses.
