Aesop's Fables with lessons and morals

Traveled by this land together a Fox and a monkey, competing at the same time each of their nobility.
While each widely detailing their titles, they came to a certain place. Monkey returned her gaze towards a cemetery and burst into tears. He asked the Fox that happened, and monkey, showing you a few tombs said:
-Oh, how can I not to cry when I see the gravestones of those great heroes, my ancestors!
-Can lie as you want - answered the Fox-;! because none of them will rise to contradict you!

Always be honest in your life. You will never know if the neighbor who listens knows the truth and shall corroborate or desmentirá your words.
