伊索寓言：三个手艺人
The Three Tradesmen
A GREAT CITY was besieged， and its inhabitants were called together to consider the best means of protecting it from the enemy. A Bricklayer earnestly recommended bricks as affording the best material for an effective resistance. A Carpenter， with equal enthusiasm， proposed timber as a preferable method of defense. Upon which a Currier stood up and said， “Sirs， I differ from you altogether： there is no material for resistance equal to a covering of hides； and nothing so good as leather.”
Every man for himself.
三个手艺人
一座大城被敌军围困了，城中的居民们聚在一起，共同商议对抗敌人的办法。一个砌匠挺身而出，主张用砖块作为抵 材料；一个木匠毅然提议用木头来抗敌是最佳的方法；一个皮匠站起来说：「先生们，我不同意你们的意见。我认为作为抵 材料，没有一样东西比皮更好。」
这个故事带出的启示就是：人们都习惯於从自身角度考虑问题，总认为自己所熟悉的东西是最好的。
