One day Nasreddin, standing at a well, poured bucket after bucket into a jug that had no bottom. They drew attention to the flaw in the vessel, to which he reasonably replied:
— I'm trying to fill the jug. In order to see when it is full, I keep my eyes on the neck of the jug, not on the bottom. When I see that the water has risen to the top, I will consider it full. And maybe then I'll become interested in the bottom of the jug.
