The Wolf and the Goat
A wolf saw a goat grazing at the edge of a high cliff. The wolf smacked
his lips at the thought of a fine goat dinner. “My dear friend," said the wolf in
his sweetest voice. "Aren't you afraid you will fall down from that cliff? Come
down here and graze on this fine grass beside me on safe, level ground."
"No, thank you," said the goat. Well then," said the wolf, “Aren't you cold up
there in the wind? You would be warmer grazing down here beside me in
this sheltered area." "No, thank you," said the goat
. "But the grass tastes
better down here!" said the exasperated wolf. "Why dine alone?" "My dear
wolf," the goat finally said, "Are you quite sure that it is my dinner you are
worrying about and not your own?" (P12.19-22.UN.0809)
