Daily Wisdom - Slanderers are like barking foxes, but Nichiren's followers are like roaring lions.

From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Wednesday, April 4, 2012:

Each of you should summon up the courage of a lion king and never succumb to threats from anyone. The lion king fears no other beast, nor do its cubs. Slanderers are like barking foxes, but Nichiren's followers are like roaring lions.
