伊索寓言：树和斧子
阅读 : 次
The Man and the Wood
A Man came into a Wood one day with an axe in his hand, and begged all the Trees to give him a small branch which he wanted for a particular purpose. The Trees were good-natured and gave him one of their branches. What did the Man do but fix it into the axe head, and soon set to work cutting down tree after tree. Then the Trees saw how foolish they had been in giving their enemy the means of destroying themselves.
树和斧子
一个人来到森林里，请求树给他一根木做斧子柄。树答应了他的请求，给他一根小树枝。他用小树枝做成了斧子柄，完好的装在斧子上，接着抡起斧子砍起树来。他很快就砍倒了森林中最贵重的大树。一棵老橡树悲伤地看着同伴被砍毁，无能为力，他对身旁的柏树说：「我们是自己先葬送了自己。如果我们不给他那根小树枝，他就无法砍伐我们，也许我们能永久地站立在这里。」
这个故事带出的启示就是：不能帮助对自己造成威胁的对象，哪怕是一个小小的帮助。
