During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor
asked the Director
what the criterion was which defined whether
or not
a patient should be institutionalized. "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub,
then we offer a teaspoon,
a teacup,
and a bucket to the patient
and ask him or her to empty the bathtub." "Oh, I understand," said the visitor.
"A normal person would use the bucket
because it's bigger than the spoon or the
teacup." "No." said the Director,
"A normal person would pull the plug!
Do you want a room with or without a view?"
