The North Wind and the Sun is one of Aesop's Fables. The moral it teaches about the superiority of persuasion over force has made the story widely known.
The story concerns a competition between the North Wind and the Sun to decide which is the stronger of the two. The challenge was to make a passing traveler remove his cloak.
However hard the North Wind blew, the traveler only wrapped his cloak tighter to keep warm, but when the Sun shone, the traveler was overcome with heat and soon took his cloak off.
