Bible
Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.
|
Horace Quintus Horatius Flaccus
For example, the tiny ant, a creature of great industry, drags with its mouth whatever it can, and adds it to the heap which she is piling up, not unaware nor careless of the future. Lat., Parvula nam exemplo est magni formica laboris Ore trahit, quodcunque potest, atque addit acervo Quem struit; hand ignara ac non incauta futuri.
|
Marcus Valerius Martial
While an ant was wandering under the shade of the tree of Phaeton, a drop of amber enveloped the tiny insect; thus she, who in life was disregarded, became precious by death.
