A poor Fisherman, who lived on the fish he caught, had bad luck one day and caught nothing but a very small fish.
从前，有一个渔夫，住在海边的小房子里。他每天都出海打渔养活全家。一天，他只打上来一条小鱼。
The Fisherman was about to put it in his basket when the little Fish said:
渔夫正要把他放到他的鱼篓里，小鱼大声叫到：
"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."
“请将我放回水里吧！我太小了，不值得抓回家，总有一天，我会变大变肥，到那时候，您再抓我，可以做一顿更丰盛的饭！”
But the Fisherman quickly put the fish into his basket.
但是渔夫没有放回大海，而是迅速的把鱼放进了鱼篓里。
"How foolish I should be," he said, "to throw you back. However small you may be, you are better than nothing at all."
渔夫说：“我得多愚蠢啊，把你扔回大海。尽管你很小，总比什么都没有的强”
这个故事告诉我们：
A small gain is worth more than a large promise.
小小的收获比空头支票更有价值。
