Lion eyes

These two guys were pretty hungry.  As they slowly approached us on the road and eyed us up, we tried to not move and look as skinny and unappealing as possible.  Must have worked, since they continued on their way.  But when this guy looked at me, he seemed to look deep into me.

"Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.

It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle:
when the sun comes up, you had better be running."
