"Never Start a fight, but always be ready to end one."
My fathers advice that has always stuck with me, a "fight" isn't always physical. My father would often say this to me and it wasn't until I was older that I grasped my fathers meaning behind this phrase, I used to take it at face value as advice on an actual hand to face fight. But now I know it is advice on how to deal with almost any adversary. I should never actively seek conflict of any nature, verbal, physical, or other. But instead be ready to cope with the situation and put an end to the problem quickly and soundly. My father was teaching me what it was to be a man, to never be the ruckus but be the one who snuffs out the ruckus.
