Quote by Jawaharlal Nehru

The person who runs away exposes himself to that very danger more than a person who sits quietly.

The person who runs away exposes himself to that very danger

Summary

This quote suggests that by choosing to run away or avoid a situation, a person actually puts themselves at a greater risk or danger than someone who chooses to face it calmly. It implies that fleeing from a problem or challenge not only fails to solve the issue, but also leaves the person more vulnerable to the consequences that might arise from running away. Ultimately, the quote encourages individuals to confront their problems head-on rather than attempting to escape them.
