The Wild Boar & the Fox
Author: Aesop
When a Fox passed by, a wild boar was busy sharpening his
tusks against a tree stump. The Fox was now constantly looking for an
opportunity to tease his neighbor. As a result, he made a big deal out of
scanning the area nervously and fearfully. The Boar, however, persisted in his
work.
Finally, the Fox smiled and asked, "Why are you doing that?" "I
don't perceive any danger.”
Absolutely rite, but there won't be time for this type of
work when danger does strike, the boar said.
Then, I'll need to be prepared to use my weapons, or I'll
pay for it later.”
Moral
The best guarantee of peace is war preparation.
