  Nasreddin put two big baskets of grapes on his donkey and went to market. At midday it was very hot, so he stopped in the shade of a big tree. There were several other men there, and all of them had donkeys of grapes too. After their lunch they went to sleep. After some time, Nasreddin began to take grapes out of the other men's baskets and to put them in his.

    Suddenly one of the men woke up and saw him. “What are you doing?” he said angrily.

    “Oh,” said Nasreddin, “Don't worry about me. I am half mad, and I do a lot of strange things.”

    “Oh, really?” said the other man. “Then why don't you sometimes take grapes out of your baskets and put them in somebody else's baskets?”

     “You did not understand me”, said Nasreddin. I said that I was half mad, not quite mad.
