Summary

This quote suggests that a person who is cowardly or lacks courage is more likely to be drawn into arguments and conflicts. The explanation behind this is rooted in the fact that individuals with a stronger sense of bravery or resolve are oftentimes able to avoid getting involved in unnecessary quarrels by displaying their confidence and assertiveness. In contrast, those who lack courage tend to be seen as more vulnerable targets and may unwittingly attract confrontations and disputes. This quote emphasizes the importance of inner strength and courage in navigating interpersonal situations peacefully.
