The Wise Goat

Over a river there was a very narrow bridge.One day a goat was crossing the bridge.
Just at the middle of the bridge he met another goat.There was no room for them to pass.
"Go back!" said one goat to the other, "There is no room for both of us to pass."


"Why should I go back?"said the first goat, "Why should you not go back?"


"You should go back!" said the other goat, "Beacause I'm stronger than you"


"You are not stronger than I", said the first goat.


"We will see about that", said the second goat, and he put down his horns to fight.


"Stop!"said the first goat, "If we fight we shall both fall into the river and be drowned.Instead I have a plan , I shall lay down and you may walk over me."


Then the wise goat lay down and the other goat passed lighty over him and they pass each other on their ways...
