伊索寓言:橡樹與宙斯
The Oaks and Jupiter
THE OAKS presented a complaint to Jupiter, saying, "We bear for no purpose the burden of life, as of all the trees that grow we are the most continually in peril of the axe." Jupiter made answer: "You have only to thank yourselves for the misfortunes to which you are exposed: for if you did not make such excellent pillars and posts, and prove yourselves so serviceable to the carpenters and the farmers, the axe would not so frequently be laid to your roots."
橡樹與宙斯
橡樹指責宙斯說:「我們生存著毫無意義,所有的植物中我們被砍伐得最多。」宙斯說:「招來不幸原因全在你們自己,假如你們不能做斧柄,對木匠和農夫毫無用處,那么斧頭也不會來砍你們了。」
這個故事帶出的啟示就是:有些人把自己所引起的不幸,毫無道理地歸咎於神。
