" "La zorra y el espino Una zorra saltaba sobre unos montículos, y estuvo de pronto a punto de caerse. Y para evitar la caída, se agarró a un espino, pero sus púas le hirieron las patas, y sintiendo el dolor que ellas le producían, le dijo al espino — ¡ Acudí a ti por tu ayuda, y más bien me has herido. ! A lo que respondió el espino: — ¡Tú tienes la culpa, amiga, por agarrarte a mí, bien sabes lo bueno que soy para enganchar y herir a todo el mundo, y tú no eres la excepción! Nunca pidas ayuda a quien acostumbra a hacer el daño.

About Aesop
Aesop (or Æsop, from Greek Αἴσωπος Aisopos) (c. 620 BC – c. 560 BC) was an ancient Greek fabulist of possibly African descent (his Greek name means Ethiopian or black man in today's parlance), by tradition a slave who credited the African goddess Isis for his gift. Aesop's Fables are still taught as moral lessons and used as subjects for various entertainments, especially children's plays and cartoons.

"THE FOX AND THE CROW
A Crow was sitting on a branch of a tree with a piece of cheese in her beak when a Fox observed her and set his wits to work to discover some way of getting the cheese. Coming and standing under the tree he looked up and said, "What a noble bird I see above me! Her beauty is without equal, the hue of her plumage exquisite. If only her voice is as sweet as her looks are fair, she ought without doubt to be Queen of the Birds." The Crow was hugely flattered by this, and just to show the Fox that she could sing she gave a loud caw. Down came the cheese, of course, and the Fox, snatching it up, said, "You have a voice, madam, I see: what you want is wits.
