political brain

“I have heard a future story. A man went into a hospital to purchase a brain, because his own was not functioning well. He wanted to replace it. The surgeon took him around. There were many brains available. He showed him a brain of a scientist. The prise only 100 rupees. The brain of a famous, great well known mathematician and the prise only 200 rupees. And the brain of a great general and the prise only 300 rupees. so and so forth. Then he come to a brain of a great political leader. And the prise was 10000 rupees. The customer was a little puzzled. He said what do you mean. Do you mean that the politician has a greater brain, than a great nobel prize winner scientist. The surgeon said please dont misunderstand us. Not that the politician has a great brain than the scientist or the general or the mathematician or the poet. but this the brain which has never been used. It is brand new. Hence the prise.”
