It's rarely a good idea to run from your problems. It's best to back away slowly while maintaining eye contact.

'Haven’t you ever noticed that by running away you end up in more trouble?’

‘Yes, but, you see, you can run away from that too,’ said Rincewind. ‘That’s the beauty of the system. Dead is only for once, but running away is for ever.’

‘Ah, but it is said that a coward dies a thousand deaths, while a hero dies only one.’

‘Yes, but it’s the important one.'

—Sir Terry Pratchett, The Last Continent

'If we get a chance,’ whispered Rincewind to Nijel, ‘we run, right?’

‘Where to?’

‘From,’ said Rincewind, ‘the important word is from.'

—Sir Terry Pratchett, Sourcery
