Two quotations: Aesop and the Bible on diligence

GO TO THE ANT
from the Bible: Proverbs 6:6-8 (King James Version)

"It is thrifty to prepare today for the
 wants of tomorrow." -- Aesop

Go to the ant, thou sluggard;
Consider her ways, and be wise:
Which having no guide,
Overseer, or ruler,
Provideth her meat in the summer,
And gathereth her food in the harvest.
