North Wind and Sun

Everyone would have thought that the north wind could strip a traveler's cloak.
No one would have thought the sun could take off a traveler's cloak.

Isn't the fable perhaps the oldest one left in the world that suggests the superiority of radiative process over atmospheric dynamics?

Aesop was a slave in Greece 2,600 years ago.
He is amazing, isn't he?
