Rabbi, What is the Meaning of Life?
A much respected rabbi is at death's door. His students crowd around
his bed, and one finally asks, "Rabbi, you have seen so much. Tell us,
what is the meaning of life?" "Life," the rabbi replies haltingly, "is
a fountain."
The students clamor, "A fountain, what does that mean?"
"Alright," the rabbi groans, "so it's not a fountain!"
