伊索寓言:苍蝇和拉车的骡子

阅读 :

  The Fly and the Draught-Mule

  A FLY sat on the axle-tree of a chariot, and addressing the Draught-Mule said, "How slow you are! Why do you not go faster? See if I do not prick your neck with my sting." The Draught-Mule replied, "I do not heed your threats; I only care for him who sits above you, and who quickens my pace with his whip, or holds me back with the reins. Away, therefore, with your insolence, for I know well when to go fast, and when to go slow."

  苍蝇和拉车的骡子

  一只苍蝇叮在四轮车的车轴上,对拉车的骡子说:「你为甚么走得这么慢!干吗不跑快一点?看来需要我来叮咬你的颈部了。」骡子说:「我不怕你的恐吓,我只注意坐在你上面的那个人,他会用鞭子使我加快步伐,用拉我的头调整方向。你快滚开些吧,别再嗦了,我非常清楚甚么时候该快,甚么时候该慢。」

  这故事是说不要自以为是,去做那些超越自己范围的事。那样,只会使别人厌恶。
