The Modern Fable About Golden Fish


A poor old Fisher catches a Golden Fish.
-Let me go, asks the Fish. If you do it, I'll fulfil 3 of your wishes. The old man releases the fish but the fulfiled wishes do not make him happy. And he turns to live as poor as he was.

This is a fable written by Russian poet A.S.Pushkin in XIX century.

And here is the modern fable:

-It's a great fortune you fished me out from this sewage, says the Fish. Pls, fulfil you ONLY ONE my wish!!! Take me to a clean pond or kill me. I can't live and die slowly in this ocean!
