What does the adages mean it is better to take many injuries than to give one

Answer 1

What the adage "it is better to take many injuries than to give one" means is basically to be the better man. Even if someone insults you, you should never insult them back, but take it like a man, endure it, and turn the other cheek. You will be a better man if you don't stoop to their level.
