寓言故事|The Thrift of Strength

来源:www.diusong.com 2025-01-31
A WEAK Man going down-hill met a Strong Man going up, and said:
I take this direction because it requires less exertion1, not from
choice. I pray you, sir, assist me to regain2 the summit.
Gladly, said the Strong Man, his face illuminated3 with the glory
of his thought. I have always considered my strength a sacred
gift in trust for my fellow-men. I will take you along with me.
Just get behind me and push.
