激励胆小的人寓言故事

The Fawn and His Father

小鹿与他的父亲

A young fawn once said to his Father, “You are larger than adog, and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your horns as a defense; why, then, O Father! do the hounds frightenyou so?”He smiled, and said: “I know full well, my son, that all you say is true. I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as fast as I can.”

有一天,小鹿对公鹿说道,“父亲, 你怎么还怕狗呢?你比他高大, 比他跑得更快, 而且还有很大的角用于自卫。”公鹿笑着说：“孩儿，你说得都对，可我只知道一点，一听到狗的.叫声，我就会不由自主地立刻逃跑。”

【寓意】

激励那些天生胆小、软弱的人毫无用处。

No arguments will give courage to the coward.
