伊索寓言 饑餓的狗
幾隻饑餓的狗，看見河裏浸泡著一張牛皮，他們使勁夠也夠不著。於是，便互相商定，大家一起喝乾河水，就可以得到那張獸皮了。結果呢，還沒等到去拿牛皮時，他們的肚皮都被河水漲破了。
【寓言啟示】
不量力而行，辛辛苦苦追求希望渺茫的利益，結果，不但所希望的東西沒得到，反而會付出慘重的代價。
The Dogs and the Hides
An Aesop's Fable
Some Dogs, famished with hunger, saw some cow-hides steeping in a river. Not being able to reach them, they agreed to drink up the river; but it fell out that they burst themselves with drinking long before they reached the hides.
Moral of Aesops Fable: Attempt not impossibilities.
