The dove is a symbol of peace, of course, but even a dove can get angry! This proverb warns you to beware: if something has made even the dove angry, then something has gone very wrong indeed. The anger of a creature who is normally peaceful can be the most dangerous anger exactly because it is so rare.
Dread the anger of the dove.
(French: Craignez la colère de la colombe.)
