Doing nothing An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him: "Can I also sit like you and do nothing?" The eagle answered: "Sure, why not." So the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. Suddenly, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it. Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
