It was high time to go, for the pool was getting quite crowded with the birds and animals that had fallen into it: there were a Duck and a Dodo, a Lory and an Eaglet, and several other curious creatures.
真该离开这里了,因为掉进池塘里的鸟雀和动物让水里变得越来越挤:里面有一只鸭子、一只渡渡鸟、一只吸蜜鹦鹉、一只小鹰,还有其他几种奇特的生物。

巴菲特芒格原话
But the real question is, how many birds are in the bush?但真正的问题在于,树丛里究竟藏着几只鸟?(源自谚语:双鸟在林不如一鸟在手。这里指未来究竟能产生多少现金流。)
