任何一个人都为了拣一块银币而费尽了心机，可是这里有黄金般的文字，古代最聪明的智者说出来的话，它们的价值是历代的聪明人向我们保证过的；——然而我们读的只不过是识字课本，初级读本和教科书，离开学校之后，只是&小读物&与孩子们和初学者看的故事书；于是，我们的读物，我们的谈话和我们的思想，水平都极低，只配得上小人国和侏儒。

这样决定之后，我就进入了树林。星期五紧随我身后，小心翼翼、悄然无声地往前走。我们一直走到树林的边缘，那儿离他们最近，中间只隔着一些树木，是树林边沿的一角。到了那里后，我就悄悄招呼星期五，指着林角上最靠外的一棵大树，要他隐蔽在那树后去观察一下，如果能看清楚他们的行动，就回来告诉我。他去了不大工夫，就回来对我说，从那儿他看得很清楚，他们正围着火堆吃一个俘虏的肉，另外还有一个俘虏，正躺在离他们不远的沙地上，手脚都捆绑着。照他看来，他们接着就要杀他了。我听了他的话，不禁怒火中烧。他又告诉我，那躺着的俘虏不是他们部落的人，而是他曾经对我说过的坐小船到他们部落里去的那种有胡子的人。

这丰厚的彩头引得俄狄浦斯，这位富于智慧和洞察力，却因受伤而瘸腿的人，接受了条件，前去一试：他信心十足，心情放松的出现在斯芬克斯面前，被问到哪种动物生下来四条腿，后来只有两条腿，又后来变成三条腿，最后又回到四条腿。他马上就回答说这是人，人在刚刚出生和婴儿阶段时以四肢着地，艰难的试着爬行；不久之后就两脚直立行走；到了晚年要着拐棍走路所以是三条腿；最后风烛残年了，腿骨无力，又回到四足状态，呆在床上。

It may be that my fingers were frozen when I was a very small child and have never quite thawed out,or it may be that I just become panicky at having a man look at me through a little window, but whatever the cause, I am physically unable to pick up change which has been shoved out at me by a man at a ticket booth.
