【有听童话故事】小鹿和它的妈妈

A young fawn once said to his Mother, "You are larger than a dog, and swifter, and more used to running, and you have your horns as a defense; why, then, O Mother! Do the hounds frighten you so?"

有一次，一只年轻的小鹿对他的妈妈说， " 你比狗大，比狗灵活，且比他更能奔跑；你还有鹿角可以御敌；那么，为什么，妈妈！猎犬让你如此害怕？"

She smiled, and said: "I know full well, my son, that all you say is true. I have the advantages you mention, but when I hear even the bark of a single dog I feel ready to faint, and fly away as fast as I can."

她笑了笑，说:" 我的儿子，这些我完全清楚，你说的都是对的。我有你所说的这些优势，但是，我甚至只要听到一声狗叫，我就感觉要昏倒了，就会尽我所能逃跑。"

No arguments will give courage to the coward.

任何理由，都不足以鼓起懦夫的勇气。
