The Philosopher and a Villager

Once a philosopher was going to a village. On the way, he came across a villager who was also proceeding to the same village.

The villager inquired of the philosopher, how much time he would take to reach the village.

The philosopher replied, “go on”.

The villager thought that the philosopher had not understood his question. He repeated his question but got the same reply.

Now he became sure that the philosopher was a mad man. He went ahead.

He had hardly covered 50 yards when the philosopher asked him to come back.

The villager turned back.

“Well,” said the philosopher, “it will take you one hour and a half to reach the village.” “Good”, said the villager, “but why did you not tell it to me before?”

“O, fool!” replied the philosopher, “how could I tell you anything when I did not know the speed at which you walk?”

The villager felt ashamed and took his way.
