Because they are cowards who can only deal with someone weaker than themselves. They are not brave enough to mess with tough ones.

Bullies are insecure in nature and they want to extend their insecurity to someone who isn't going to come and bite them off

Bullies pick on quiet folk because they wont stand up for themselves like wolves they hunt in packs otherwise they would lose their power.

Bullies are often insecure themselves, so they look for people that they think are insecure too. Quiet folk are not always insecure even if bullies think so. The best way to combat bullies is to show them that their actions do not affect you and that you are strong.

They do this because they feel you are vulnerable and you give the image that you won't fight back. So what you can do is stand up taller, keep your head high, show confidence. If people bully you, fight back. You can get in their face and they will be so surprised they might stop bullying you. False confidence is better than no confidence.

Bullies feel the need to pick on the quiet kids because those are the ones that will cause the least amount of trouble about it. Most quiet kids that are bullied will stay silent about it, and will never say anything. Bullies know this and will exploit it as much s they can.

In my opinion it's because they have nothing else better to do, have no life and need to grow up. I grew up as a shy girl especially in school and I was being bullied everyday. One day outta nowhere enough became enough for me and I just stood up for myself and they were shocked. Don't get me wrong it didn't keep anyone from picking with me on down the line, but it got better.

They want to pick on someone who's weaker and will be less likely to fight back, and if you're quiet and introverted you're less likely to be with other people, which means you're less likely to have allies to back you up.
