ஆங்கிலம் அறிவோம்: Mullas logic

முனைவர் தி.ந.கீதா

Mulla loaded a barrel of cherries on his donkey, and went off to the bazaar to sell them. On his way, a group of about a dozen children noticed him, and were elated to see all the cherries he was carrying. They began dancing and singing in anticipation of eating cherries.“Mulla,” they said, “please give us some.” Now, Mulla was in a dilemma. On one hand, he adored children and did not want to disappoint them; but on the other hand, he loved profits and did not want to sacrifice them either. After thinking the matter over, he took six cherries out of the barrel and gave them to the children.“Can we have more?” the children asked.“Listen,” Mulla replied, “these cherries all taste the same. What difference does it make if each of you eat half a cherry, or each of you eat fifty?”

Another day, carrying Oranges Mulla was riding a donkey, and at the same time was supporting a sack of oranges over his shoulder. His friends saw him and asked, “Why are you going to the trouble of carrying that sack over your shoulder. Why don’t you just attach it to the donkey?” Mulla replied, “I am not an abusive man. My donkey already has to carry me-do you think it would be fair to add the weight of these oranges?”
