Chapter 46

When Di Whole World Walk Di Way

天下有道,却走马以粪。天下无道,戎马生于郊。
祸莫大于不知足,咎莫大于欲得。故知足之足,常足矣。
When di whole world walk di way, dem mek war horse go dung weh dem belong - a di farmyaad wid daut an poopo. When di world leh go di way, war horse pop up everyweh - even rait yaad pon di edge a town. Nuthn cyan destroy yuh more dan not know when yuh have enuf. Nuh sin bigger dan wantin every last ting. But when yuh learn sey enuf i enuf, yuh cyan always be satisfied.
