Once a dispute arose between the sun and the wind. Each thought that it was stronger than the other. It was decided whosoever made the traveler take off his coat, would be stronger than the other.

The wind blew harder and harder. The traveler felt cold. He held on his coat tightly. Now it was the turn of the sun. The sun grew hotter and hotter. The traveler took off his coat. Thus the sun won.

Moral: Boasters, like the wind, lick dust.
