Marking the Boat for the Sword

A man from the state of Chu was crossing a river. Suddenly, his sword fell into the water while he was sitting in the boat.
He immediately made a mark on the boat. "This is where my sword fell off," he said.
When the boat stopped moving, he went into the water to look for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat. But, the boat had moved, not the sword.


Moral: A very foolish way to look for something.
