A poor Fisherman, who lived on the fish he caught, had bad luck one day and caught nothing but a very small fish.
從前，有一個漁夫，住在海邊的小房子裡。他每天都出海打漁養活全家。一天，他只打上來一條小魚。
The Fisherman was about to put it in his basket when the little Fish said:
漁夫正要把他放到他的魚簍裡，小魚大聲叫到：
"Please spare me, Mr. Fisherman! I am so small. It is not worth while to carry me home. When I am bigger, I shall make you a much better meal."
「請將我放回水裡吧！我太小了，不值得抓回家，總有一天，我會變大變肥，到那時候，您再抓我，可以做一頓更豐盛的飯！」
But the Fisherman quickly put the fish into his basket.
但是漁夫沒有放回大海，而是迅速的把魚放進了魚簍裡。
"How foolish I should be," he said, "to throw you back. However small you may be, you are better than nothing at all."
漁夫說：「我得多愚蠢啊，把你扔回大海。儘管你很小，總比什麼都沒有的強」
這個故事告訴我們：
A small gain is worth more than a large promise.
小小的收穫比空頭支票更有價值。
