Give a man a fish

I was reading Matthew 15-16 I was pondering about the role of a parable.

Pete Rollins has written some interesting parable in 'Othodox Heretic' but then I thought up the following proverb (since I cant manage a whole parable yet):

"Give a man an answer and you will feed him spiritually for a day,
Give a man a question and you will feed him for a lifetime."
