Give the peasants neither life nor death.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
That a peasant may become king does not render the kingdom democratic.
Give the people not hell, but hope and courage.
Nothing in life is promised except death.
Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
Without a moral framework, there is nothing left but immediate self-indulgence by some and the path of least resistance by others. Neither can sustain a free society.
There is no wealth but life.
The unexamined life is not worth living.
Here is no choice but either do or die.
The community which has neither poverty nor riches will always have the noblest principles.
Give me the luxuries of life and I will willingly do without the necessities.
