Mulla Nasrudin
was in love with a woman.
"Look
darling," he said to her, "here is a diamond engagement ring
for
you."
"Oh, it is
beautiful!" she claimed "But honey, the diamond has a flaw in
it."
"You should
not notice that," said the Mulla. "Why, you are in love and you know
what they say -- 'love is blind'."
"Blind,
yes," she said, "but not stone blind."
