"Nasrudin, ferrying a pedant across a piece of rough
water, said something ungrammatical to him. "Have you
never studied grammar?" asked the scholar.
"No."
"Then half of your life has been wasted."
A few minutes later Nasrudin turned to the passenger.
"Have you ever learned how to swim?"
"No. Why?"
"Then *all* your life is wasted--we are sinking!"
(From "The Sufis" by Idries Shah
