+dog bark because that is what its canine nature is like but we do not
+stop our journey because of its barking, and without any war
+against dogs we calmly continue our journey until we reach our
+destination. It seems that you care more about barking than the dog
+does, and more about winning the war with any lousy puppy than about
+reaching the destination quickly.
