He who chooses to be a grain, the hen will eat him   LISTEN

One has to keep oneself respectful, formal and powerful otherwise the others won't value him but on the contrary they would smash him down. The elf-esteem is what the proverb praises here. One has never to expose his weak points to the others for fear they should use them as a weapon to obliterate him or at least dirty his reputation. In other words, One has to behave like a wolf among wolves.
