Two peasants
Once upon a time two peasants attempted to pass each other and their sledges became entangled. One cried, “Get out of my way; I must get to the town as quickly as possible;” and the other said, “You get out of my way; I must get home as quickly as possible.”
Thus for a long time they disputed. A third peasant saw it and said, “If you are in such a hurry, then each of you gives way a little.”
两个农夫
有一次，两个农夫正要交臂而过，他们的雪橇却勾在一起了。一个农夫嚷道：“给我让路，我要尽快赶到城里去呢。”另一个说：“你给我让路，我得尽快赶回家去。”
两人就这样没完没了争执不下。第三个农夫看到了说：“既然你们两人都这么急，那就各自退让一点吧。”
