The renowned fabulist Aesop told of a bear, sniffing around a log, when a single bee came out and stung him right on the nose. The bear became enraged and began tearing the log apart, which served to alert the entire hive of bees inside that log to swarm upon him, stinging him from head to heel. The bear bolted for a nearby pond and dove in, saving himself further injury. The moral of the story is that it is better to bear a single injury in silence than it is to bring about a thousand more by reacting in anger.

Aesop has another famous story; this one about a tiny mouse that bit a great bull right on the nose. The bull went after him, but the little mouse slipped into a hole in a wall. The bull charged the wall again and again, to no avail. Exhausted, he sat down on the ground. After a few moments, the mouse popped back out of the hole, bit the bull again, and darted back into the hole. The bull could nothing but bellow and fume in helpless anger. When he'd settled down a bit, a shrill little voice came from inside the wall. It was the mouse, saying, "You big guys don't always have it your own way, sometimes we little ones come out the best!" -The moral to this story is that the battle is not always won by the strongest.
