Summary

This quote highlights the irony of human progress. In the past, humans had to rely on their intelligence and adaptability to survive in a world full of dangerous predators like tigers.

Instead of facing external threats, we now face internal challenges and conflicts that threaten our survival. It serves as a reminder that despite our evolution and accomplishments, we must not neglect the issues that arise within our own society and strive to find harmony and better solutions for our collective well-being.
