伊索寓言:灯
阅读 : 次
The Lamp
A LAMP, soaked with too much oil and flaring brightly, boasted that it gave more light than the sun. Then a sudden puff of wind arose, and the Lamp was immediately extinguished. Its owner lit it again, and said: "Boast no more, but henceforth be content to give thy light in silence. Know that not even the stars need to be relit"
灯
用橄榄油的灯能发出很亮的光。灯洋洋得意,以为自己的光比星星还要亮得多。一阵风吹来,灯马上被吹灭了。有人来再点燃,并对他说:「灯啊,好好地亮着,别 嗦!星星的光是永远不会灭的。」
这个故事带出的启示就是:人们不要因名声与荣誉而盲目自大,沾沾自喜。
