瞽者与人同坐。人有所见而笑,瞽者亦笑。或问汝何所见而笑?瞽答曰:“诸君所笑,定然不差,难道是骗我的。”
——《笑赞》
Laugh with Others
A
blind man was in the company of others. When his companions saw something
funny, they laughed. The blind man laughed, too. When
they asked him why he was laughing, the blind man replied, “Since you laugh,
there must be something worth laughing at. Can you be cheating me there?”
