"Each quail represents different human-like personalities on the quest for high quality of life. One quail, too nervous try and so lays flat on the ground. One starts to climb but becomes apprehensive and just stairs down to make sure it won't fall. One makes it half way, then feels content with it's average level of achievement. One makes it to the top to enjoy the incredible view. All the young quail look to the highest quail for an example, since it isn't until after living life for a while that are we told that failure is a possibility. So the message is a call to regain our childlike faith that all good things are possible."
