My father said: "A enemigo que huye, puente de plata".This is a military sentence, because they thought that it was better to let a prisoner be free, through an open door of the prision, than picking to him.
This sentence is in the famous book "El Quijote", by Cervantes.Also it means that when someone disappoints to you, then you can leave to that person, because it has lost your confidence.
