(Grasshopper and Owl dialogue)

Grasshopper: Mr. Owl, you're so wise. What's your secret?

Owl: Wisdom comes with experience, my young friend. I've seen many seasons pass and learned from them.

Owl: (smiling) Not at all. There's joy in watching the world around me and appreciating the simple pleasures of nature.
