Wolves and Horses

Yet another piece of evidence in the case for The Wire as a contemporary prophetic voice. Here is the wisdom of Omar and its prefiguration in Scripture:

How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies?

- Omar

If you have run with footmen and they have tired you out, then how can you compete with horses?

- Jeremiah
