Summary

This quote highlights the idea that gossip and rumors can fuel conflict and strife. Like a fire that needs wood to sustain itself, disagreements and arguments often rely on the presence of a tale bearer, someone spreading stories and stirring up tension. However, if there is no one to spread tales or gossip, the conflicts tend to fade away and peace is restored. It reminds us of the power of our words and the impact they can have on our relationships and the harmony within a community.

I thought Daredevil was kind of cool because he couldn't do anything. I mean, he's blind. It wasn't that he could fly. His major power was an impediment. So I was intrigued.
