Two monks were passing by a little pond where there were some ducks, and the first monk said, "Look at how happy those ducks are!"

The second monk said, "You are not a duck. You can't know if they are happy."

The first monk replied, "You are not me. You can't know that I cannot."

The takeaway from this is that half of all monks may or may not have duck telepathy, yes?

It's a zen parable, so... yes.
