Fabel van de schildpad en de haas A tortoise and a hare standing by a fox. In the background a city. The fable describes the running race between the tortoise and the hare. The hare is much faster than the tortoise. He imagines himself already won and will rest until he reaches the finish line. The tortoise is slow progress but has stamina and is the first to cross the line. The moral of the story shows that perseverance is more important than talent.
