O izvirniku

Besedilo
Delfini in glavač
Dolphins and whales were fighting one another. As the battle raged on, a goby (a small fish) surfaced and tried to reconcile them. But one of the dolphins spoke up and said to him, “We would rather perish fighting one another than have you as our peacemaker.” So it is with some people who, though worth nothing, think themselves important when they get involved in a quarrel.

Δελφῖνες καὶ φάλαιναι πρὸς ἀλλήλους ἐμάχοντο. Ἐπὶ πολὺ δὲ τῆς μάχης κορυφουμένης, κωβιὸς ἀνέδυ (ἔστι δὲ οὗτος μικρὸς ἰχθὺς), καὶ ἐπειρᾶτο αὐτούς διαλλάττειν. Εἷς δέ τις τῶν δελφίνων ὑπολαβών ἔφη πρὸς αὐτόν· ,,ἀλλʼ ἡμῖν ἀνεκτότερόν ἐστι μαχομένοις ὑπʼ ἀλλήλων διαφθαρῆναι, ἢ σοῦ διαλλακτοῦ τυχεῖν.“
Οὕτως ἔνιοι τῶν ἀνθρώπων οὐδενὸς ἄξιοι ὄντες, ὅταν ταραχῆς λάβωνται, δοκοῦσί τινες εἶναι.
