Summary
This quote means that someone who has harmed or wronged one person often poses a threat to many others as well. It suggests that someone who is willing to hurt someone once is likely to repeat their harmful actions and target others in the future. It serves as a cautionary reminder that those who have previously shown a tendency to harm others should not be taken lightly, as they may pose a danger to a wider range of individuals.
