The Moon and Her Mother

An Aesop Fable

THE Moon once begged her Mother to make her a gown. "How can I?" replied she: "there's no fitting your figure. At one time you're a New Moon, and at another you're a Full Moon; and between whiles you're neither one nor the other."

Moral: Someone who is always changing cannot expect others to regard him as one particular thing.
