The Man and His Two Sweethearts, 남자와 두 연인, 이솝우화

Man, whose hair was turning grey, had two Sweethearts, an old woman and a young one.
The elder didn't like having him look so much younger than herself; so, whenever he came to see her, she pulled the dark hairs out of his head to make him look old.
The younger didn't like him to look older than herself, and pulled out the grey hairs, to make him look young. 
Between them, they left not a hair in his head, and he became perfectly bald.


He who gives in to others ' wants will have no principles of his own.
