Besedilo
Svinja in psica
A sow and a dog were arguing over which was better at bearing young. When the dog claimed that she alone among four-footed animals bore her young so quickly, the sow replied, “But when you say that, remember that your young are born blind.” The fable shows that things are judged not by their speed, but by their completeness.

Ὗς καὶ κύων περὶ εὐτοκίας ἤριζον. Τῆς δὲ κυνὸς εἰπούσης, ὅτι μόνη τῶν τετραπόδων ταχέως κύει, ἡ ὗς ὑποτυχοῦσα ἔφη· ,,ἀλλʼ, ὅταν τοῦτο λέγῃς, γίνωσκε, ὅτι τυφλὰ τίκτεις.“
Ὁ λόγος δηλοῖ, ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ τάχει τὰ πράγματα, ἀλλʼ ἐν τῇ τελειότητι κρίνονται.
