To be a dwarf in peace is more honourable than to be a giant in war!

About This Quote

To be a dwarf in peace is more honourable than to be a giant in war! A dwarf is a person who is short and a giant is a person who is very big. In the first case, it is more honorable to be short than to earn a lot of money. In the second case, it is more honorable to earn a lot of money but by peaceful means.
