<span>What the adage "it is better to take many injuries than to give one" means is basically to be the better man.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the words "tired", "noisy", "new" and "unfamiliar" help create a tiring and strange mood. The character is clearly exhausted from dealing with a new and strange environment.
