Ancient Tales from the Eternal East Quotes

“the cat didn’t know that the fish knew that the cat was its enemy. The teacher didn’t know that the cat didn’t know that the fish knew that the cat didn’t know about the fish. But the fish didn’t know that the teacher didn’t know his Zen and that the cat didn’t know that the teacher didn’t know his Zen, and only the fish knew Zen but didn’t know that it knew Zen. So the fish laughed at the cat.”
― Sam Elcot, Ancient Tales from the Eternal East
