madman on trial takes a hostage: the star witness against him
madman strangles his hostage. I threaten to stab him
The madman dares me to cut his throat but I can't. Squeamish. Try and try. Poke a tiny hole...
...it breathes! I had my knife at the HOSTAGE's throat! If I'd slashed OR done nothing, he'd have died. Timidity saved him.
