A Quaker had this sign put on a vacant piece of land next to his home: "THIS LAND WILL BE GIVEN TO ANYONE WHO IS TRULY SATISFIED."
A wealthy farmer who was riding by, stopped to read the sign and said to himself, "Since our friend the Quaker is so ready to part with this plot, I might as well claim it before someone else does. I am a rich man and have all I need, so I certainly qualify."
With that he went up to the door and explained what he was there for. "And art thou truly satisfied?" the Quaker asked.
"I am, indeed, for I have everything I need."
"Friends," said the Quaker, "if thou art satisfied, what dost thou want the land for?"
