Terrified by unknown horsemen on road, Nasruddin hides in an open grave and gives a witty response when they ask him what he is doing there: I am dead but came back to take a last look at the world of the living.
Notes: The usual punchline is "I've come back to take a last look," but there's a fun variant in Shah's Exploits book: "I'm here because of you, and you because of me."
