There is an ancient legend that comes to us from Persia. It seems a wealthy nobleman once was sitting alone in his garden. Suddenly, unexpectedly, the sounds of a crowd were heard, and the nobleman was surprised to see a ragged man climbing over his garden wall.

The nobleman nodded and casually handed the man the remainder of the peach he had been eating. About then the crowd arrived.
