Four monks agreed to observe silent meditation for two weeks, without speaking.
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, "Didn't we agree not 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."
