Long long ago, there were two men who had a very fierce quarrel. They argued for a long time, but still they couldn’t settle the problem. The incident occurred one morning outside Albert Schweitzer’s hospital in the African jungle. A patient who lived in the hospital had gone fishing in another man’s boat without permission. He succeeded in getting a tot of fish. Finding out what the patient had done, the owner of the boat thought that he should be given all the fish that were caught. Dr. Schweitzer said to the boat owner:
"You are right because the other man ought to have asked permission to use your boat. But you are wrong because you are careless and lazy. Though you have the boat, you don’t make good use of it. You merely twisted the chain of your canoe round a palm tree instead of fastening. it with a padlock. Of laziness you are guilty because you were asleep in your hut on this moonlit night instead of making use of the good opportunity

The Bedouin people think most highly of people who show loyalty. To them loyalty does not mean that one is devoted to a country, a place, or a leader. Loyalty means being faithful to one’s family and tribe.
The Bedouin take pride in their ancestors. They do not admire a hero from an ordinary or poor family as much as one who comes from an ’honored family. They particularly respect those who have inherited a good name and then have passed it on to their children.
A man’s position among the black-tent people depends upon his ancestors, relatives, and fellow tribesmen. If they are honored, he is also honored. If they are disgraced, he too is disgraced. Therefore one carefully guards the honor of his family, his lineage, and his tribe.
A man can protect his family’s honor by being brave and generous and by giving protection to those who ask for it. He also guards it by carefully watching the women of his family.

A. doesn’t love his country as much as his family
