A farmer had four sons. They always quarrelled. This made the farmer unhappy. The neighbours were also disturbed every now and then for their loud shouts. The farmer tried to bring them into their sense but failed. At last, he thought of a plan.
One day, the sons were quarrelling again and the old farmer heard them. He told them to bring four sticks and some ropes. The sons were surprised, yet they did so. The old farmer then tied the sticks together with the rope and said to his sons, “Now, try and bread this bundle of sticks.” The four sons tried one after another, but couldn’t break the bundle. Then the farmer untied the sticks and gave one stick to each of his sons. Then he told his sons to break the sticks. This time, they all broke their sticks easily. Then the old farmer said to his sons, “You are like these sticks. When you are united, you are strong. But when you are alone, you are weak.” The sons understood the lesson and promised not to quarrel again.

Many hundreds of years ago, Aesop, a Greek slave, became famous for the fables he told. After so many years, people are over the world still enjoy reading them today as much as the Greeks enjoyed listening to them long, long ago.
Long ago and far away, there was an old farmer who had seven songs. One day, the old farmer was laying on his bed and he thought that he would not live much longer. He called his sons before him. He told a servant to bring in a bundle f seven sticks tied together. He handed the bundle to his oldest son and said to him, "Son, now break the bundle."
The son tried with all his might, but he could not bread the bundle. One by one, the other brothers tried. No one of them was strong enough.
The father smiled, "Now, my sons, untie the bundle. Each of you, take a stick and try to break it." This time they had no difficulty breaking the sticks. In a few moments, all the sticks were broken.
The old man looked at his sons affectionately and said, "Remember, in unity is strength."
