只要工夫深，鐵杵磨成針
只要工夫深，鐵杵磨成針
這是個關于中國唐代大詩人李白的傳說。
李白小的時候非常調皮，不喜歡讀書。 一天他在河邊玩耍的時候看見一位老婦人拿著一根鐵棒在大石頭上磨。 李白非常好奇，問那個老婦人：
“你在干什么呀，老奶奶？”
老婦人邊磨邊說：“在磨鐵棒。”
“磨這個干什么用啊？” 李白又問。
“做一根繡花針。” 老婦人回答。
“什么？！” 小李白聽糊涂了。“你想把這么粗的鐵棒磨成繡花針？！可是這要花好多年啊！”
“這沒有關系？只要我堅持下去，世上沒有辦不到的事，我一定能把鐵棒磨成針的。”
老婦人的話深深打動了李白。從此，他認真刻苦地學習，最終成為了一名偉大的詩人。
So long as you have put a great deal of effort, you can grind an iron rod into a needle-Perseverance spells success
This legend is about Li Bai (lǐ baí 李白), a great poet in Tang Dynasty (táng cháo 唐代). Li Bai was naughty and disliked study when he was a child. One day he saw an old woman grinding an iron rod on a big stone when he was playing by a river. Driven by curiosity, Li Bai came up and asked,
"What are you doing, granny?"
"Grinding an iron rod," said the old women without stopping grinding.
"Then what for?" he asked again.
"To make a sewing needle," was the answer.
"What?!" little Li Bai was puzzled, "you want to grind so big a rod into a needle?！It will take many years."
"This doesn't matter. As long as I persevere in doing so, there is nothing you cannot achieve in the world. Certainly I can make a needle from the rod." Deeply moved by what the old woman said, Li Bai took effort to study since then and finally became one of the greatest poets in China.
