伊索寓言:老太婆和羊
The Wolf and the Sheep
A WOLF, sorely wounded and bitten by dogs, lay sick and maimed in his lair. Being in want of food, he called to a Sheep who was passing, and asked him to fetch some water from a stream flowing close beside him. "For," he said, "if you will bring me drink, I will find means to provide myself with meat." "Yes," said the Sheep, "if I should bring you the draught, you would doubtless make me provide the meat also."
Hypocritical speeches are easily seen through.
老太婆和羊
从前,有一个贫穷的老太婆,养着一只羊。到了剪羊毛的季节,她想剪羊毛,但又不愿花钱雇请他人,就自己动手剪羊毛。她的剪毛技术不熟练,竟连毛带肉都剪下来了。那只羊痛得挣扎着说:「主人,你为甚么这般伤害我?我的血和肉能增加多少羊毛重量呀?如果要我的肉,屠夫立刻就能杀死我;如果要我的毛,剪毛匠会很好的剪下我的毛,而不使我痛苦。」
这个故事带出的启示就是:最少的费用并不一定会获得最大的利益。
