Kung Fu. Caine's teacher, Master Po, called him "grasshopper" as a child.

What is the origin of the phrase use it wisely grasshopper?

I believe it comes from the Aesop's Fable, "The Ant and the Grasshopper." The ant toiled hard all summer, preparing for the coming winter so that he would have plenty of food, while the grasshopper idled. When winter came the grasshopper had no food and was starving to death. The ant was kind enough to give the grasshopper some of his food, and said, "Use it wisely, Grasshopper."
