“When you pursue two rats at the same time, you catch neither, the pillar of Logic said.

You do not divide forbidden meat with your teeth, the pillar of Religions and Philosophy whispered.

A child does not play outside so much as to forget home, the pillar of History, Geography, and Languages warned.”
