The Dogs and the Fox
"The Dogs and the Fox" is a meaningful fable by Aesop about a brood of dogs that encounter a vicious fox. The gnarling dogs surround the fox, ready to attack, but the cunning fox uses his wit to try and talk his way out of the situation. This story reflects lessons about caution, choosing your battles wisely, and the power of clever thinking over brute force.
Some Dogs found the skin of a Lion and furiously began to tear it with their teeth. A Fox chanced to see them and laughed scornfully. "If that Lion had been alive," he said, "it would have been a very different story. He would have made you feel how much sharper his claws are than your teeth." It is easy and also contemptible to kick a man that is down.
