An Excellent Use Of Books

Once there was an egghead with his servant. One day,

he told his servant to bring some books. The servant

took two or three books that he considered to be the

most famous, but the master said, "Not enough."

The servant got one more book, but the master

still said, "Not enough! Go get three more."

After the servant did this, he said, "Now that's it."

The servant asked, "How can you read so many books

in such a short time? You kept saying 'not enough,' 'not enough.'"

The egghead replied, "I'm not reading them. I'm using them as a pillow."

书的妙用

有一个书生，他有一个佣人。有一天，他叫他的佣人带一些书来，

那个佣人就选了自己认为最出名的两、三本带过来。然后他说：

「啊！不够！」所以佣人就多带一本来。他还是说：「不够！

多带三本来。」之后，他说：「啊！现在才好。」那个佣人就问：

「你怎么能够一下子看那么多书呢？一直说不够、不够！」

书生回答：「没有啊！我是要当枕头用！」
