LIFE EXPLAINED, PART 77

It is said that the bigger they are, the harder they fall. Often ignored in this equation is the fact that in general, the bigger they are, the harder they hit. And also there's this often-ignored maxim: The smaller they are, the quicker they fall. So it's best to have a solid plan when confronting a big person or a big problem, one that employs a lot of lucid thought and careful preparation and does not involve relying on simplistic slogans having little to do with reality. Otherwise you'll be knocked on your adage in no time, wondering why your empty words failed you. Ignore the obvious at your peril.
