Yeshiva boys were debating whether a person grows from below or from above; from his feet or his head. One of them said: “My father bought me a pair of pants last year and when I wore them, they would drag on the ground. Now, they reach up to my ankles. This shows that a person grows from his feet.” His friend responded: “It’s just the opposite. Just look at us. Below, all our feet reach the floor equally. But above, some of us are short and some are tall. This shows that a person grows from his head.”
