The Boy And The Filberts
Aesop Fable: The Boy And The Filberts
A boy put his hand into a pitcher full of filberts. He grasped
as many as he could possibly hold, but when he tried to
pull out his hand, he was prevented from doing so by the
neck of the pitcher.
Unwilling to lose his filberts, and yet
unable to withdraw his hand, he burst into tears and bitterly
lamented his disappointment.
A bystander said to
him, "Be satisfied with half the quantity, and you will readily
draw out your hand."
Do not attempt too much at once.
