One day, the minister said to the king,
I am more important than you in this kingdom!!
The King, of course, did not agree with him at all and he asked the minister a question:
How are you being more important than me in this kingdom?? !!
The minister: I, who collect taxes, I, who take care of the parish and care for them..... Etc.
The King replied: I will ask the most Ignorant in the people, who is the less educated people, and you will hear by yourself who is the most important in this kingdom!!
The King asked a shepherd: Which is the biggest, the mouse or the camel?
The shepherd: Of course, the camel.
The king asked again: Which is the biggest, the dog or the elephant?
The Shepherd: The elephant.
The King asked the last question: who is bigger the King or the minister?
The Shepherd: I do not know these animals.

Yes, Alice, it's funny, But I do not agree with you that "the world is one big zoo, and we are all different kinds of animals". Because God created the human and give him the mind, and make him the master of the creation. Even if a person has lost his mind is not treated like an animal. Thank you for your nice comment. Have a nice day.
Funny indeed! Isn't the world one big zoo, and we are all different kinds of animals...some docile, some aggressive?! Thank you Samuel for the good laugh to start my day!:)
Nimzaf, Thank you for the reading and your nice comment.
Eva, That is exactly what happened to me when I read that story for the first time. So I wanted to share that story with all the friends. Thank you for your sweet comment.
Lady Anne, it's the vanity of the Kings, which makes them did not see only themselves. What is important is the smile of the story. Thank you for your comment.
This minister must learn a lesson from the ignorant man.
