一次,剃须刀对剑说道:“为什么人们说到你时都很尊敬,却几乎不提我呢?” "因为你总是在身体表面上滑过而已,而我则更深入。”剑回答说。 "就这样,”剃须刀说,"因此你比我对他们的伤害要大吧! ” “你说得真对! ”剃须刀的同伴皮带说。“人们总是喜欢把那些对他们造成最大伤害的东西视作伟大!” 剃须刀听到剑和皮带说的话后,为人类感到非常难过。 The Sword, the Razor, and the Strop A razor once said to a sword,“ How is it that men always speak of you with respect, while they hardly make any mention of me?” “Because,” said the sword, “you skim over the surface, while I go deeper.,’ “Just so,” said the razor, “and thereby do them more harm than ever I can. ” “You are quite right,” said the strop, who was of course an ally of the razor; “men always call those great that do them the largest amount of harm!” The razor felt very sad for men after hearing what the sword and the strop had said. |
