THE FALCON AND THE QUAIL - MORAL STORY

        There was a big falcon. He was very powerful and strong. He could pick up very large animals in his claws and fly high and long He was a terror to smaller birds, as they became his prey if they crossed his path. 




         Once, a small quail happened to cross his path. The falcon looked at the quail and said, "Hey small one, I give you one chance to escape. Fly as far as you can. If you can evade me I shall spare your life" The poor quail flew as far as he could and landed on a solid rock. 

     No sooner had he set foot on the rock, he heard the harking sound of the falcon shrieking in his ears. "Here I come," shouted the falcon in pomp and dived straight at the quail. The quail waited till the last second and suddenly ducked away. The falcon, who came sweeping at the quail could not control his plight and hit hard on the rock and died immediately. The quail sighed in relief.


 Moral: SIZE IS NOT MIGHT. WISD OM IS MIGHT !!!
