Drama Precludes Results

You can't teach a principle to someone lacking interest, no matter how evocative and adroitly demonstrated. We timeless ones who know our way might sometimes think we are here solely to teach and show, but we are only fools if we attempt to instruct those who will never care for the substance of our lessons.

This consideration does not leave us empty handed, but rather challenges us for the proper course of situational action. Must we always teach? Shouting truths to the unlistening changes nothing. We could approach differently so that rather than speaking unheard words, we set a course of corrective action in motion toward a desirable outcome. In this way we achieve a principle without wasting effort battling non-sentience.

Part of our wealth is having an endless arsenal, and we should use it wisely by whatever means available to achieve necessary results.
