Said the tiger to the lily,
Said the viper to the rose,
Let us marry so our children
May attain the double pose.

 
Nathalia Crane
 

Create all the happiness you are able to create: remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you to add something to the pleasure of others, or to diminish something of their pains. And for every grain of enjoyment you sow in the bosom of another, you shall find a harvest in your own bosom; while every sorrow which you pluck out from the thoughts and feelings of a fellow creature shall be replaced by beautiful peace and joy in the sanctuary of your soul.

 
Jeremy Bentham
 

Hell's brewin' dark sun's on the rise
This storm'll blow through by and by
House is on fire, Viper's in the grass
A little revenge and this too shall pass.

 
Bruce Springsteen
 

He saw a lawyer killing a viper
On a dunghill hard, by his own stable
And the devil smiled, for it put him in mind Of
Cain and his brother, Abel.

 
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
 

A second wife is hateful to the children of the first; A viper is not more hateful.

 
Euripides
