i remeber a bit, but i don't have the exact qoute.

it said that everytime you chopped a head off a new one grew in it's place.

explanation:

main idea: it is important to prepare today for the needs of tomorrow.

the grasshopper was dying due to hunger, and this was because he didn't prepare for the winter.

the ants told the grasshopper, "if you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."

the ants were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime.

the maori creation myth tells the story how humans were born and how nature in their birth by sacrificing themselves. according to this creation myth, the earth and heaven were once joined as ranhinui.   papatuanuku was the sky father and the mother ranhinui was the earth and they had many children. the children lived in the darkness and wanted to live in the light. the children separated the parents in order to live in the light. the parents continue to grieve for each other until the present day.

the haida creation myth is about a trickster named raven who stole the sun, the moon and the stars in order to bring light to his created world. he created animals, fish, trees, men, and all the creatures but they lived in darkness because of which he stole light.

based on a comparison of the myths “the maori: genealogies and origins in new zealand” and “the raven and the first men: the beginnings of the haida,” if the maori and the haida people decided to create a myth together, the importance of family will be the most likely values be expressed.

the maori and haida cultures are more similar than different because they have   important values in common. both the cultures value nature, family and sacrifice.
