Story Snippet
The Ass and the Charger.An Ass congratulated a Horse on being so ungrudgingly and carefullyprovided for, while he himself had scarcely enough to eat, nor even thatwithout hard work. But when war broke out, the heavy armed soldiermounted the Horse, and rushed into the very midst of the enemy, and theHorse, being wounded, fell dead on the battle-field. Then the Ass,seeing all these things, changed his mind, and commiserated the Horse,saying: "How much more fortunate am I than a charger. I can remain athome in safety while he is exposed to all the perils of war." Be not hasty to envy the condition of others. From Aesop's Fables |

Quotable Quote/Tongue Twister
A bitter biting bittern
Bit a better brother bittern,
And the bitter better bittern
Bit the bitter biter back.
And the bitter bittern, bitten,
By the better bitten bittern,
Said: "I'm a bitter biter bit, alack!"
