The document summarizes the fable of the tortoise and the hare. In the story, a hare brags that he can run faster than anyone and challenges the slow tortoise to a race. During the race, the hare takes multiple naps while the tortoise steadily makes progress. By the time the hare wakes up for the final time, the tortoise has already crossed the finish line, teaching the hare a lesson about the perils of overconfidence.
