The Man And The Lion
Aesop Fable: The Man And The Lion
A man and a lion traveled together through the forest.
They soon began to boast of their respective superiority
to each other in strength and prowess. As they were disputing,
they passed a statue carved in stone, which represented
"a Lion strangled by a Man." The traveler pointed
to it and said: "See there! How strong we are, and how we
prevail over even the king of beasts."
The Lion replied: "This statue was made by one of you
men. If we Lions knew how to erect statues, you would see
the Man placed under the paw of the Lion."
One story is good, till another is told.
