An evil wolf will not get along in a country where good people live - this is Cuckoo’s assumption, which is described in the fable “The Wolf and the Cuckoo” by Krylov.
Read the text of the fable:
“Goodbye, neighbor! - The Wolf said to Cuckoo, -It was in vain that I beckoned myself to the peace here!
You still have the same people and dogs:
One is angrier than the other; and even though you are an angel,
So you can’t avoid a fight with them.” -
“How far is the neighbor’s journey?
And where are such pious people,
With whom do you think you can live in harmony?
"Oh, I'm going straight
In the forests of happy Arcadia.
Neighbor, that's the side!
There, they say, they don’t know there’s a war;
Meek men are like lambs
And rivers flow there with milk;
Well, in a word, golden times reign!
Everyone treats each other like brothers.
And they even say that dogs don’t bark there,
Not only do they not bite.
Tell me yourself, my dear,
Isn’t it cute, even in a dream,
Can you see yourself in such a quiet land?
Sorry! don't remember us badly!
That's where we'll live:
In harmony, in contentment, in bliss!
Not like here, walk with caution during the day
And don’t sleep peacefully at night.”
“Happy journey, my dear neighbor! -
The cuckoo speaks. - And your character and teeth?
Will you throw it here or take it with you?”
“Come on, what nonsense!” -
“So remember me, why should you be without a fur coat.”
Who is worse in character,
Moreover, he shouts and grumbles at people:
He doesn’t see the good ones, no matter where he turns,
And the first one will not get along with anyone.
Moral of the fable The Wolf and the Cuckoo:
The moral of the story is that the nature of personality cannot be changed. Angry man nowhere will he feel truly happy. He does not get along with others, the problem lies in his quarrelsome nature. In the fable, the Wolf went to the distant country of Arcadia, where pious people and kind animals live. But the Cuckoo asks the Wolf: what does he plan to do with the teeth and claws? The fabulist warns in an allegorical form: an aggressive and quarrelsome person acts the same everywhere. Changing the team or moving to another country will not help him.
