我利用他们作为一个枕头
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."
从前有个书呆子和他的仆人。有一天,他告诉他的仆人带一些书。仆人拿了两或三本书,他认为这些是最有名的,但主人说,“不够”。仆人又拿来一本,但主人还是说,“不够的!再拿三。”之后,仆人这样做,他说,“现在呢。”仆人问道,“你怎么能在这么短的时间内读这么多书?你一直说不够,”不够。”书呆子答说,“我不读。我利用他们作为一个枕头。”
