"拒绝统治的最重罚是被不如你的人统治"

Simplified Meaning:
If you decide not to take charge or avoid putting yourself in a leadership position, the downside is that you might end up being led by someone less capable than you. Think about a group project at school. If you don't step up to organize and lead, someone else will. This person might not know as much or be as good at leading the team. As a result, the group might struggle, and the project could turn out poorly. By avoiding responsibility, you risk ending up in a situation where things are not done well because the person in charge doesn't have the skills you do. To avoid this, you should consider taking on leadership roles when you know you have the ability to do a good job.
