Yes, this is an unusual dawn. Even the timid zebra challenges the leopard. This is the dawn in which the prey takes courage and turns on the predator. It is the dawn in which the underdog finds the strength to rebel and nothing disorients the mighty more than the attack of those who have already feared him in the past. In the great game, the same ones don't always win. [From the epilogue of the film Mondo Violence, c. 1978]
