Summary

This quote suggests that the attributes or qualities that make a nation strong can also become the cause of its downfall. When a nation relies heavily on a particular strength or power, it can eventually lead to complacency and a lack of development in other important areas. Overemphasis on one strength may lead to neglect in addressing vulnerabilities, diversifying resources, or adapting to changing circumstances. Consequently, what was once a nation's source of strength can become its Achilles' heel, making it more susceptible to challenges and threats.
