What is the word/adjective/expression that can be used to describe people who are always ready to defend themselves against others criticism/mockery/teasing/malicious purposes, etc (against mischievous people who enjoy embarrassing others)?
Adjectives such as 'clever' or 'intelligent' or 'witty' can be used to describe that kind of people, but I think there are other better adjectives.

Thank you!
P.S I don't have that quality. I'm always defeated and I often feel that I'm the most stupid person on earth.
