英语原文是什么

找到下边这么一个，好像。。。
---------------

For the want of a nail the shoe was lost,

For the want of a shoe the horse was lost,

For the want of a horse the rider was lost,

For the want of a rider the battle was lost,

For the want of a battle the kingdom was lost,

And all for the want of a horse shoe nail.

因为少了一颗马蹄钉而掉了那马蹄铁，

因为掉了那个马蹄铁而失去了那匹马，

因为失去了那匹马而缺了那骑兵，

因为缺了那骑兵而输了那战役，

因为输了那战役而丢了整个国家，

悔之晚矣！全是当初少了一颗马蹄钉。

这是Benjamin Franklin（本杰明 富兰克林）说的话，告诉人们的道理应该是：

人不能忽略细节，如果忽略细节，你就可能会失去….

上边这个好像被称为“铁蹄效应或蝴蝶效应”，好像跟你的要求不大一样哈。
