"It is solely by risking life that freedom……" — Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
"It is solely by risking life that freedom is obtained; . . . the individual who has not staked his or her life may, no doubt, be recognized as a Person; but he or she has not attained the truth of this recognition as an independent self-consciousness."
