The Fox and The Panther

A fox and a panther were arguing with each other about their beauty. And while the panther was putting forward the variety of his fur over and over again, the fox interrupted him and said: "But I am much prettier than you, because I, who does not possess much variety as far as my pelt is concerned, DO have a lot of variety in my mind."

This fable clarifies that beauty of the mind is better than beauty of the body.
