“The wisest of all, Socrates, was found reciting Aesop on his deathbed…
“An Aesop’s fable may appear to be a simple thing. Einstein’s wave of light analogy may appear to be a simple thing. A parable of Jesus may appear to be a simple thing. And indeed, one of Steve Jobs’ pretty little icons may appear to be a simple thing.
“But the simplicity appears only in the art of it, but not in the science of it.“
~ The Importance of Aesop to Socrates
Following is an index of the Aesop LinkedIn Articles. Aesop’s Fables have withstood the test of time. If you need an idea for your upcoming presentation, or if you’re a lover of philosophy and wisdom, this summary index is provided for your support.
The Essential Aesop for Business, Managers, Writers and Professional Speakers (here in a Back to Basics Abridgement Series) is a collection from the printed book, augmented by “Why We Loved It” commentary. The Business of Aesop™ are additional LinkedIn articles that directly reference the fables, but are not part of The Essential Aesop series; these articles are cited as the “b.” references below.
