From Aesops Fables The Wind and the Sun A Dispute Once arose between the Wind and the Sun over which was the stronger of the two. There seemed to be no way of settling the issue. But suddenly they saw a traveler coming down the road This is our chance, said the sun, to prove who is right. Whichever of us can make that man take off his coat shall be the stronger. And just to show you how sure I am, Ill let you have the first chance. So the Sun hid behind a cloud, and the Wind blew an Icy Blast. But the harder he blew the more closely did the traveler wrap his coat around him. At last the wind had to give up in disgust. Then the sun came out from behind the cloud and began to shine down upon the traveler with all his power. The traveler felt the suns genial warmth, and as he grew warmer and warmer he began to loosen his coat. Finally he was forced to take it off altogether and to sit down in the shade of a tree and fan himself. So the sun was right, after all!
