Summary
This quote suggests that evil has a tendency to appeal to those who feel powerless or inadequate. The promise of power that evil offers serves as a tempting allure for individuals who feel marginalized or lacking control over their lives. It implies that the weak - referring to people who lack self-confidence, resilience, or authority - may be vulnerable to succumbing to evil in search of a false sense of strength or control.
