| The Boy And The FilbertsA Boy put his hand into a pitcher full of filberts. He grasped as
 many as he could possibly hold, but when he tried to pull out his
 hand, he was prevented from doing so by the neck of the pitcher. Unwilling
 to lose his filberts, and yet unable to withdraw his hand, he burst
 into tears and bitterly lamented his disappointment. A bystander said
 to him, "Be satisfied with half the quantity, and you will readily
 draw out your hand."
 Do not attempt too much at once.
