If you put a buzzard in a pen six to eight feet square and entirely open at the top,the bird,in spite of its ability to fly,will be an absolute prisoner.The reason is that a buttard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet.Without space to run,as is its habit,it will not even attempt to fly,but remain a prisoner for life in a smallo jail with no top.
The ordinary bat that flies around at night,who is a rematkable nimble creature in the air,cannot take off fron a level place.If it is placed on the floor or flat ground,all it can do ia to shuffle about helplessly and,no doubt,painfully,until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air.Then,at once,it takes off like a flash.

在好多方面,许多人都像美洲鹫、蝙蝠和大黄蜂一样.他们在困难与挫折中挣扎徘徊,却从来没有意识到：答案就在他们“上面”.
