A frog lived in a well. It had lived there a long time. One day another frog, which lived in the sea, came and fell into the well. "Where are you from?" the first frog asked. "I am from the sea", the second one said. "The sea! What is it like? Is it as big as my well?". The second tried to describe how impossibly big was the sea and leapt to the other side of the well and said to the other frogs, "What nonsense this frog is speaking to compare the sea with your well." But the frog in the well retorted "Nothing can be bigger than my well. There can be nothing bigger than this. This fellow is a liar, so turn him out."
