In real life, it is the hare who wins. Every time. Look around you. And in any case it is my contention that Aesop was writing for the tortoise market. Hares have no time to read. They are too busy winning the game.

Hi, Mary! I would have to agree with Anita on this. I think tales are for those who have time to read, and just read. However, I guess winners are for those who read and do what they have to. In the end, people often write about winners too!
