There is a king in the palace. Every year, he fixes his palace to make it look better than before. One day, the king says, “This year, I must make the palace more perfect(更加完美的). Everyone in my country will praise it.” After a month, the king asks many people to come to the palace and talk about their ideas.
“This is a perfect palace,” say many people. But only a tall man doesn’t say anything. The king wants to know why this man keeps quiet. So he asks, “Is not my palace perfect?”
The man answers, “My dear king, your palace is very beautiful. But it isn’t perfect. A palace is perfect because the people inside are perfect. You spend too much time making the palace perfect. Why not spend some time making yourself a perfect king?”
The king thinks a lot about it. He thanks the man for his words. After that, he never tries to (盡力)make the palace perfect again.
