An ant may well destroy a whole dam. A book holds a house of gold. Butcher the donkey after it finished his job on the mill. A crane standing amidst a flock of chickens. A camel standing amidst a flock of sheep.
Crows everywhere are equally black.
A dish of carrot hastily cooked may still has soil uncleaned off the vegetable. Dismantle the bridge shortly after crossing it. Distant water won't help to put out a fire close at hand. Distant water won't quench your immediate thirst. Better not have done it anyways.
