Four monks decided to meditate silently without speaking for two weeks. By nightfall
on the first day, the candle began to flicker and then went out. The first monk
said, "Oh, no! The candle is out." The second monk said, "Aren't
we not suppose to talk?" The third monk said, "Why must you two break
the silence?" The fourth monk laughed and said, "Ha! I'm the only
one who didn't speak."
