The line itself is saying that killing someone will make sure they can't hurt you, since dead men don't bite.

Folklore can be described as the dissemination of any type of information through oral communication or through leading by example. This information will represent the collective ideas of a certain group of people and can be transmitted through mediums such as literature or knowledge. Nowadays the world has morphed into a technologically advanced sphere where all information can be acquired at the touch of a button. This however doesn't change the definition of folklore, it only changes the medium through which we share the information.

He thinks that fear is a natural reaction, but that it weakens people and therefore should be avoided.
<h3>Why does he think this way?</h3>
- Because he is afraid of what might happen.
- Because he feels weakened by fear.
