DRESS DOES NOT MAKE A MAN GREAT
Sheikh Saadi was a great poet in Iran. He used to lead a very simple life. Once on his way to the court of the King of Iran, he took shelter in a nobleman's house for a night. He was then in a very simple dress. The nobleman could not recognize him and they showed disrespect and dishonor to him. The poet left the nobleman's house in utter dismay. A few days later, he went there putting on a rich dress. This time he was duly respected and honored by the people of the noble man's house. They gave him rich food to eat. The poet did not eat the food but he began to put the food in his pocket. Being astonished, the nobleman asked the poet about his mysterious behavior. Then, the poet said, "This food is for my dress, not for me. Had it been not so, I would have been treated in the same manner when I was very poorly dressed." The nobleman was really sad for this. He begged forgiveness of the poet.
