Big people never scare me. I am a little man. I can easily hide.

About This Quote

What is a little man? Some would say one who is short in stature, smaller than others. Others may say a person who has a weak physique or a person who has a mind that doesn’t compare with others. In this quote, Nelson Mandela said that he was a little man and he could easily hide. The idea of being a little man is one of the most terrifying ideas imaginable.

It means that you are weak and you can be easily victimized by others. To the little man, the big people are scary.
