有一位女士傳了一個關於鄰居的流言蜚語，很快整個社區都知道了這個故事。被談論的人深受傷害並感到十分痛苦。後來，散佈謠言的女士得知這個故事完全不是真的，感到非常遺憾，於是去尋求一位聰明老人的建議，希望能挽救這個局面。聰明老人說：“去市場買一隻雞，殺了它。然後在回家的路上，拔掉它的羽毛，一根一根地掉在路上。” 女士對這個建議感到驚訝，但還是照著做了。第二天，聰明老人說：“現在，去收集昨天你掉落的所有那些羽毛，並把它們帶回給我。”女士沿著同一條路走去，但驚訝的是，風把所有羽毛都吹走了。經過幾個小時的尋找，她只手中只有三根羽毛。 “你看，”老聰明說，“撒謊很容易，但是完全消除它們是不可能的。這就像是流言蜚語，它不需要多少力氣就可以傳開，但是一旦傳開了，就無法完全消除它所帶來的傷害。”
