A tortoise and a hare have a race. After the race begins, the

hare fools around and even stops to takes a nap, believing

he will be the sure winner. The tortoise, however, continues

to move slowly and steadily toward the finish line. Once

the hare realizes the tortoise is about to win, it is too late.

The tortoise wins, and the hare learns a valuable lesson

about the perils of overconfidence.
