Quote by G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
The fly that does not want to be swatted is safest if it sits on the fly-swat.
Summary
This quote suggests that sometimes, being in the obvious presence of danger can actually be the safest option. By sitting on the fly-swatter, the fly is putting itself right in the line of sight of the swatter, but it may avoid being swatted because the swatter is less likely to try to eliminate it where it can easily be seen. This implies that in certain situations, it is better to face risks openly rather than try to hide or evade them, as this can provide a form of unexpected protection.
