Lessons from Aesop's Fables

Lessons from Aesop's Fables

June 6, 2002

"Avoid solutions that are worse than the problem.

It is a great art to do the right thing at the right time.

Example is more powerful than reproach.

Honesty is the best policy.

He who is discontented in one place will seldom be happy in another.

Do boldly what you do at all.

The worth of money is not in its possession, but in its use.

Those who seek to please everybody, please no one.

The memory of a good deed lives on.

Happy is the man who learns from misfortunes of others.

He who wishes evil for his neighbor brings a curse upon himself.

Do not attempt too much at once (Gray, Stephens & Van Diest, 2001, p. 280)."
