Nasreddin gave his son a jug, ordered him to fetch water from the stream and covered his crack.
- This is so you don't break it! - he shouted.
A stranger asked:
- How can you beat someone who has done nothing wrong?
Nasreddin replied:
“And you probably want me to hit him after he breaks the jug, when both the water and the jug are gone?” Using my method, the boy will remember everything, and the vessel and its contents will remain intact.
