Abuse a man unjustly, and you will make friends for him.

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone is treated unfairly or abused, it tends to generate sympathy and support from others. Instead of losing respect or legitimacy, the victim of abuse may gain allies who empathize with their unjust treatment. People tend to rally around those who have been wronged, reinforcing the idea that mistreating someone often strengthens their social connections rather than weakening them.
