Indaba, my children

"Evil harms only those who look for it."

"Give a Masai a stone and he will hit something or somebody with it. Give him any piece of wood and he will turn it into a club with which to brain you."

"What deadlier betrayer is there than ones own body? What fouler enemy had the human being than desire that flows in his own veins? Marimba was lost."

"My children, you cannot keep on storing up the wrath of a river without that river sweeping you along."

"Strong are the Laws of the Tribe, but stronger still the laws of Nature."

"Do dirty pots bring forth clean food? Do not the mortals say that rotten seed begets evil plants?"
