The wind and the sun

The wind says to the sun: “I am stronger than you!” “No,” says the sun to the wind. “I am stronger than you!” The wind says: “Look at that man with his coat. If I can make him take off his coat, I am the strongest.” “OK,” says the sun. “And if I can make the man take off his coat, I am the strongest.” And so the wind blows and blows. But the wind makes the man feel cold. He pulls his coat around him. And then the sun shines on the man. It makes him feel hot. He takes off his coat. “See!” says the sun to the wind, “I am the strongest.”
