(Written by Miles)
A man traveled down a mountain path and came to a farm. On the porch were a farmer and his dog. The man walked up to the porch to talk to the farmer. The dog looked up from his slumber, then looked to his master and then went back to sleep.
“That is a quiet dog,” said the man. The farmer smiled as he looked at the dog.
“Yes. I have had him from a puppy. He is well trained.”
After a short visit and a refill of his stores, the man continued on his journey through the mountains. Deep in the wilderness he heard a wolf howl. Concerned he headed to a small wisp of smoke he saw rising from the trees ahead. There he found a camp with a man of the mountain sleeping by a fire. Resting her head on his lap was a wolf.
The wolf raised her head and stared at the visitor, glaring at him as he approached. The Mountain Man’s hand slid from where it rested on the wolf’s rump slowly up to her ears where he rubbed them, calming her without opening his eyes.
“That is a well trained dog,” said the man.
The mountain man answered without opening his eyes. “She is a wolf, and she ain’t trained.”
“Didn't she obey you when you told her to calm?” asked the man astonished.
“Obey? No,” the Mountain Man chuckled at the thought. “She’s wild … but she can be agreeable if you know how to ask.”

I've read several versions of that and loved each of them...
One of them ended:
The wolf isn't trained, she simply knows to respect a strong leader
Another ended:
It isn't the wolf you should fear, but the one the wolf respects

There is passion, yet there is peace
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me

Yes, I have heard those too.
Both show a display of dominance, and not a relationship.
In regards to emotions, you want to forge a relationship, rather than dominance.
