THE OBSERVER

One man in the lunatic asylum was known as the Observer.

Everyone called him this because of his habit of sitting

quietly and patiently observing the other inmates. While

the others engaged in friendly chats or helped each other

in small tasks, the Observer watched quietly and took notes.

His written conclusions filled dozens of pages.

One afternoon, wishing to test his discoveries, he walked

over to one of the men. 'Sir,' said the Observer, 'I notice

that you eagerly give loads of advice to everyone on any

subject. But isn't it a fact that all you really have to

give is childish nonsense which you pass off as wisdom?'

When hearing this, the man's body shook with rage, which

the Observer promptly noted on a page.
