He's No Christopher Columbus

This is an African proverb, referenced in Thomas Friedman's The World is Flat, which he saw on the wall of a factory in China-

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion
or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle
or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter if you are a lion or a gazelle.
When the sun comes up, you better start running.

I assume it was written in Chinese on that wall.
