Summary
This quote suggests that someone with an extremely negative outlook on life may not find being in danger as disheartening as others would. For someone who consistently sees the worst in everything, being exposed to danger might align with their pre-existing belief that life is inherently bleak. In a peculiar way, the danger confirms their pessimistic perspective, and thus, it might not have the same negative impact on their emotional state as it would on an optimist or a regular person.
