“ONCE A FARMER’S MARE RAN AWAY AND AFTERWARD, HIS NEIGHBOR CAME BY TO CONSOLE HIM. THE FARMER SAID: "WHO KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD?” THE NEXT DAY THE MARE RETURNED WITH A STALLION AND THE NEIGHBOR CONGRATULATED HIM. THE FARMER RESPONDED: “WHO KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD?”; THE FOLLOWING DAY THE FARMER’S SON WAS THROWN FROM THE STALLION AND BROKE HIS LEG AND AGAIN THE NEIGHBOR CONSOLED HIM. “WHO KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD,” SAID THE FARMER. WITHIN THE SAME WEEK, THE ARMY CAME TO CONSCRIPT THE FARMER’S SON, WHO WAS DISMISSED BECAUSE OF HIS BROKEN LEG. THE NEIGHBOR FINALLY AGREED: “WHO KNOWS WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD?”
