——屈原《卜居》

格言大意：尺虽然比寸长，但也有它的短处；寸虽然比尺短，但也有它的长处。

Main Idea: Sometimes a chi (foot) may prove short while a cun(inch)may prove long—everyone has his strong and weak points.

骆驼和羊（A camel and a goat）

     骆驼和羊碰到一起，一个说高好，一个说矮好，谁也不服谁。它们去找老牛评理。老牛说：“高有高的好处，矮有矮的好处，有什么好争的呢？”
    A camel and a goat met one day. One said it was good to be tall. The other said it was good to short. They couldn’t convince one another. They went to an ox and asked him to decide who was right. The ox said:” There are good points in being tall and good points in being short.What are the point of the argument?”
