The Fir-Tree And The Bramble
Aesop Fable: The Fir-Tree And The Bramble
A fir-tree said boastingly to the Bramble, "You are useful
for nothing at all; while I am everywhere used for roofs
and houses."
The Bramble answered: "You poor creature, if you would
only call to mind the axes and saws which are about to
hew you down, you would have reason to wish that you
had grown up a Bramble, not a Fir-Tree."
Better poverty without care, than riches with.
