A Young Man, who fancied himself something of a horseman, mounted a Horse which had not been properly broken in, and was exceedingly difficult to control. No sooner did the Horse feel his weight in the saddle than he bolted, and nothing would stop him. A friend of the Rider's met him in the road in his headlong career, and called out, “Where are you off to in such a hurry?” To which he, pointing to the Horse, replied, “I've no idea: ask him.”
一个年轻人总以为自己是个了不起的骑手，有一天他骑上了一匹马，那匹马并没有被好好地训练过，很难驾驭。马一感受到骑手的重量，就猛冲出去，怎么也拦不住。骑手的一个朋友看到他一直朝前冲，就喊道：“你这么着急是去哪儿啊？”骑手指着马，回答说：“我不知道。你问他。”
