Sister Mary Katherine entered the Monastery of Silence.
The Priest said, 'Sister, this is a silent monastery.
You are welcome here as long as you like,
but you may not speak until directed to do so.'
Sister Mary Katherine lived in the monastery for 5 years
before the Priest said to her, 'Sister Mary Katherine, you
have been here for 5 years. You can speak two words.'
Sister Mary Katherine said, 'Hard bed.'
'I'm sorry to hear that,' the Priest said,
'We will get you a better bed.'
After another 5 years, Sister Mary Katherine was called by the
Priest. 'You may say another two words, Sister Mary Katherine.'
'Cold food,' she said, and the Priest assured her that the
food would be better in the future.
On her 15th anniversary at the monastery, the Priest
again called Sister Mary Katherine into his office.
'You may say two words today.'
'I quit,' said Sister Mary Katherine.
'It's probably best,' said the Priest, 'You've done nothing
but bitch since you got here.'
