What is the order of this saying?

Question:The saying is something like hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. But I always get the order confused. What is the correct order of it?

Answers:
This refers to the "three wise monkeys" who show us how live a virtuous life according to a variety of far eastern philosophies. Usually, they are shown in the order "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil." The first monkey covers his ears, the second his mouth, and the third his eyes with his paws. I cannot say that they are always in this order, but that seems to be the common one.
See, Hear, Speak
Hear no evil, Speak no evil, See no evil. Meaning if you don't listen to ppl talking bad about others and if you don't talk bad about others, then nothing bad will happen to you. Which is a bunch of crap...
hear, speak, see
