“Now thus says the LORD of hosts:
Consider your ways!
You have sown much, but have brought in little;
you have eaten, but have not been satisfied;
You have drunk, but have not been exhilarated;
have clothed yourselves, but not been warmed;
And whoever earned wages earned them for a bag with holes in it.”
Haggai, 1:5-6

“You say, the times are troublesome….” St. Augustine

“Guard Against Anger….” St. Ambrose

In nature, poisonous creatures will develop bright colors to warn others of their toxicity.
