Knowing the Fish
14 One day two philosophers were walking outdoors.
As they crossed a bridge, they stopped and saw an
orange fish glide through the muddy green water, like
floating tangerine peels. In the sunlight, the fish
sparkled like fireflies.
15 “The fish are happy today,” one philosopher said to
the other.
16 “How do you know?” the other philosopher replied.
“You’re not a fish.”
17 The friends continued walking. Their footsteps
crunched the carpet of golden leaves as they passed,
and each was quiet. The first philosopher was deep in
thought, considering their conversation.
18 Finally he said to the other, “How do you know that
I don’t know that the fish are happy?” the first
philosopher said. “You are not me.”
