सुदुर्बलं नावजानाति कंचिद्युक्तो रिपुं सेवते बुद्धिपूर्वम् । न विग्रहं रोचयते बलस्थैः काले च यो विक्रमते स धीरः॥५-३३-८७॥

He despises no one as utterly weak; when fitting, he deals even with an enemy with deliberate counsel. He does not relish conflict with those firmly established in power; and at the proper time he advances with initiative—such a one is steadfast, a dhīra.
