伊索寓言：買驢子的人
The Ass and his Purchaser
A man who wanted to buy an Ass went to market, and, coming across a likely-looking beast, arranged with the owner that he should be allowed to take him home on trial to see what he was like. When he reached home, he put him into his stable along with the other asses. The newcomer took a look round, and immediately went and chose a place next to the laziest and greediest beast in the stable. When the master saw this he put a halter on him at once, and led him off and handed him over to his owner again. The latter was a good deal surprised to seem him back so soon, and said, "Why, do you mean to say you have tested him already?" "I don't want to put him through any more tests," replied the other. "I could see what sort of beast he is from the companion he chose for himself."
"A man is known by the company he keeps."
買驢子的人
有人買了一頭驢子，想要牽走試一試。他把驢牽到自己的驢馬之中，并讓他站在馬槽前。那驢子來到一頭好吃懶做的驢子旁邊。於是，買驢的人立刻給那頭驢套上轡頭，牽去還給驢的賣主。賣主問，你這方法可靠嗎？那人答道：「不必懷疑了，依我之見，選擇甚么樣的朋友，自己也就甚么樣。」
這個(gè)故事帶出的啟示就是：物以類聚，人以群分。
