The Fox and the Grapes
One hot summer day a fox was strolling through an orchard. He saw a bunch of
grapes ripening high on a grape vine. “Just the thing to quench my thirst,” he said.
Backing up a few paces, he took a run and jumped at the grapes, just missing.
Turning around again, he ran faster and jumped again. Still a miss. Again and again
he jumped, until at last he gave up out of exhaustion. Walking away with his nose
in the air, he said: “I am sure they are sour.” It is easy to despise what you can’t get.
-- Aesop
