English Original
A lioness and a vixen were talking about their young, as mothers do, praising their health, growth, beautiful coats, and resemblance to their parents.
"My litter of cubs is a joy to see," said the fox, and then she added, rather maliciously, "But I notice you never have more than one."
"No," said the lioness grimly, "but that one's a lion."
Quality, not quantity.

一只母狮和一只雌狐像所有母亲一样,谈论着她们的孩子,夸赞他们健康、茁壮、毛皮漂亮,并且长得像父母。
"我那一窝幼崽看着就让人高兴,"狐狸说,然后她带着几分恶意地补充道,"但我注意到你从来都只有一个孩子。"
"是的,"母狮冷冷地说,"但那一个是狮子。"
质量胜于数量。
