AESOP'S FABLES 
5. THE LION AND THE ASS
    A lion and an assembly went into the forest to hunt. They saw wild goats run into a cave there. They decided to catch and eat them. The ass got an idea and went inside the cave and drove the goats out. The lion stood at the entrance to strike them down and kill them. The ass made such a frightful noise in the cave, kicking and braying, that the goats came running out in fear, and the lion caught them and killed them. The ass came out of the cave, brimming with pride, and said, "Did you see how I made them run?" The lion said, "If I hadn't known you, I would have run too."
    Moral: A loud mouth doesn't impress those who know him.
