Aesop fable - The Crow and the Swan
A crow saw a swan swimming on the lake.
He said to her, “How nice you look! I wish I were white like you. I do not like being black.”
He saw that the swan was always in the water.
“If I get into the water, I may become white too,” said the crow.
So he got into the water, but was still black when he came out. He returned to the water and stayed there, hoping to become white.
The crow was used to flying about to find food and was never hungry. But to remain in the water he would only find fish, which he didn’t like. There was no other food he could find.
So he did not live very long, nor did he become white.
