ነገር የፈራ ይቃጠራል አውሬ የፈራ ያጥራል

“One who fears an issue (a problem) fences it off; one who fears a wild animal fences it off.”
ትርጉም
This proverb states that people deal with problems or threats by trying to contain, isolate, or avoid them. Whether facing a social issue ('thing' or 'matter') or a physical danger (wild animal), the instinctive reaction is to create boundaries or barriers for protection rather than direct confrontation.

ይህ ምሳሌ ሰዎች ከሚያስፈራቸው ነገር ራሳቸውን ለመጠበቅ አጥር ወይም ገደብ እንደሚሰሩ ያመለክታል። ችግሮችን በቀጥታ ከመጋፈጥ ይልቅ ለማግለል ወይም ለመቆጣጠር መሞከርን ይገልጻል።
