There are three things which if one does not know; one cannot live long in the world: what is too much for one, what is too little for one, and what is just right for one - Swahili Proverb.

Answer 1

"All animals are created equal but some animals are more equal than others - George Orwell."

This is from George Orwell's remarkably famous novel, Animal Farm.

I think it means that everyone is born equal, but depending on how hard you work in life, you may become "superior" to those who started on the same level as you.

"There are three things which if one does not know; one cannot live long in the world: what is too much for one, what is too little for one, and what is just right for one - Swahili Proverb."

Think about it in, excuse the example, terms of food.

If you have too much, you can get sick and risk the chance of dying(extreme circumstances).

If you eat too little, the same can happen,

But by eating the right amount, you will be perfectly healthy.
