A Parable About a Frog


Throw a frog into a

Pot of boiling water;
He will jump right out.

Throw a frog into a
Pot of cold water,
Slowly raise the heat;
He will remain oblivious
Even unto death.

Throw a good man
Into a cruel society;
He will see injustice clearly and
 Speak out.

Throw a good man
Into a cold and polite society;
Slowly change
Standards and values.
He will remain silent,
With no sense of right or wrong 
Even unto death.
