|There was a man who once had a Goose that always laid golden eggs, one
every day in the year.
Now, he thought there must be gold inside of her. So he wrung her neck
and laid her open.
He found that she was exactly like all other geese. He thought to find
riches, and lost the little he had.
This fable teaches that one should be content with what one has, and not
be greedy.
