伊索寓言：赫拉克勒斯与雅典娜
Hercules and Pallas
Hercules, once journeying along a narrow roadway, came across a strange-looking animal that reared its head and threatened him. Nothing daunted, the hero gave him a few lusty blows with his club, and thought to have gone on his way. The monster, however, much to the astonishment of Hercules, was now three times as big as it was before, and of a still more threatening aspect. He thereupon redoubled his blows and laid about him fast and furiously; but the harder and quicker the strokes of the club, the bigger and more frightful grew the monster, and now completely filled up the road. Pallas then appeared upon the scene. "Stop, Hercules," said she. "Cease your blows. The monster's name is Strife. Let it alone, and it will soon become as little as it was at first."
"Strife feeds on conflict."
赫拉克勒斯与雅典娜
赫拉克勒斯经过一条狭窄的路时，见到地上有一个很像苹果的东西。他用脚想去踩碎它，突然觉得那东西变大了两倍，於是他更加用力去踩，到后来用大木棒去打。结果那东西越胀越大，把路都堵塞了。他扔下木棒，不知所措地站在那里。这时，雅典娜来到他面前，说：「兄弟，住手吧，这个怪物叫纠纷，如果你不去理会它，它就会平平安安地停放在那里，仅只有苹果一样大。若与它争斗和对抗，它就会膨胀得巨大。」
这个故事带出的启示就是：生活中需要和平共处，争斗和对抗往往会带来更大的危害。
