One night a patient went fishing in another
man's boat outside Albert Smith's hospital. The owner of the boat thought he
should get all the fish from the patient.
Dr Smith said to the boat owner, "You are
right because you didn't allow him to use your boat. But you are wrong because
you are careless and lazy. You seldom(很少)
put your boat in a safe place and fasten it with a lock. Because of your
laziness you were asleep on this moonlit night instead of making use of the
good time to fish. "
He turned to the patient, "But you are
wrong when you took the boat without asking the owner's permission(允许). You are right because you are not so lazy as
he is, and you did not want to let the moonlit night go by without making use
of it. "
Dr Smith divided the catch(捕捉物) among the patient, the boat owner and the
hospital .
