BECAUSE THOSE WERE NOT CHILDREN – THEY WERE US.”

”You sold me a car two weeks ago,” Mulla Nasrudin said to the used-car salesman.
”Yes, Sir, I remember,” the salesman said.
”WELL, TELL ME AGAIN ALL YOU SAID ABOUT IT THEN,” said Nasrudin. ”I AM GETTING
DISCOURAGED.”

An artist was hunting a spot where he could spend a week or two and do some work in peace and
quiet. He had stopped at the village tavern and was talking to one of the customers, Mulla Nasrudin,
about staying at his farm.
”I think I’d like to stay up at your farm,” the artist said, ”provided there is some good scenery. Is there
very much to see up there?”
”I am afraid not ” said Nasrudin. ”OF COURSE, IF YOU LOOK OUT THE FRONT DOOR YOU CAN
SEE THE BARN ACROSS THE ROAD, BUT IF YOU LOOK OUT THE BACK DOOR, YOU CAN’T
SEE ANYTHING BUT MOUNTAINS FOR THE NEXT FORTY MILES.”

Mulla Nasrudin and his wife were sitting on a bench in the park one evening just at dusk. Without
knowing that they were close by, a young man and his girl friend sat down at a bench on the other
side of a hedge.
Almost immediately, the young man began to talk in the most loving manner imaginable.
”He does not know we are sitting here,” Mulla Nasrudin’s wife whispered to her husband. ”It sounds
like he is going to propose to her. I think you should cough or something and warn him.”
”WHY SHOULD I WARN HIM?” asked Nasrudin. ”NOBODY WARNED ME.”

Mulla Nasrudin was testifying in Court. He noticed that everything he was being taken down by the
court reporter. As he went along, he began talking faster and still faster. Finally, the reporter was
frantic to keep up with him.
Suddenly, the Mulla said, ”GOOD GRACIOUS, MISTER, DON’T WRITE SO FAST, I CAN’T KEEP
UP WITH YOU!”
