PLSSS HELPPPP

An old monkey on the point of death summoned his sons around him to give them some parting
advice. He ordered them to bring in a bundle of sticks, and said to his eldest son: "Break it." The son
strained and strained, but with all his efforts was unable to break the sticks. The other sons also tried,
but none of them was successful. "Untie the bundle," said the father, "and each of you take a stick."
When they had done so, he called out to them: "Now, break," and each stick was easily broken. "You
see my meaning," said their father.
What was the father's meaning?

Answer:

"Apes alone, weak. Apes together, strong"- Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Step-by-step explanation:

The father meant that alone people (or apes) are not as strong as when they are united or together.
