Besedilo
Rak in njegova mati
A mother said to her young crab, “Why do you walk sideways, my child, when you ought to go straight?” He replied, “Lead the way, Mother, and I will try to follow it.” But when she proved unable to walk straight, her son reproached her for her folly.
It is easier to give advice than to do what one cannot manage oneself.

Ἡ μήτηρ πρὸς τὸν καρκίνον· „τί δὴ λοξὴν, ὦ παῖ, βαδίζεις ὁδὸν, ὀρθὴν ἰέναι προσῆκον;“ Ὁ δὲ πρὸς αὐτήν· ,,ἡγοῦ τῆς ὁδοῦ, ὦ μῆτερ, καὶ πρὸς αὐτὴν βαδίζειν πειράσομαι.“ Τῆς δὲ βαδίζειν ἀπορούσης ὀρθῶς, κατήγορος ὁ παῖς τῆς παρανοίας ἐγένετο.
Ῥᾷον παραινεῖν ἃ πονεῖν ὑπῆρξεν ἀδύνατον.
