Quote from The Hungry Coat

Once upon a time

in Turkey there lived a

funny, little wise man named

Nasrettin Hoca. He wore a

huge, white turban and a

worn-out coat made of

patches upon patches.

Riding about on his little

gray donkey, he liked to help

whomever he could.

One day Nasrettin Hoca

heard a great commotion

inside the caravansary, a hostel

for travelers. A frisky goat

had gotten loose inside

the kitchen. Kicking and

prancing, she was breaking

all the dishes, knocking over

pots and pans, and spilling

all the cooking oil. . .
