（单词翻译:单击）

A RIVER carried down in its stream two Pots, one made of
earthenware and the other of brass1.  The Earthen Pot said to the
Brass Pot, "Pray keep at a distance and do not come near me, for
if you touch me ever so slightly, I shall be broken in pieces,
and besides, I by no means2 wish to come near you." 


Equals make the best friends.
