Man & Dog
Jun 1 2008, 3:41 AM EDT | Post edited: Jun 1 2008, 3:41 AM EDT
A dog bit the leg of a man with such violence that venom dropped from its teeth, and the poor man could not sleep all night through pain.
His little daughter chided him, saying, “Why didn’t you bite him back?”
The unfortunate parent wept and then smilingly replied, “Dear child! Although I was stronger than the dog, I restrained my anger. Should I receive a sword-blow on the head, I could not apply my teeth to the legs of a dog.”
One can revenge oneself upon the mean, but a man cannot act like a dog.
