A man who is good for anything ought not to calculate the chance of living or dying; he ought only to consider whether in doing anything he is doing right or wrong…For neither in war nor yet at law ought I or any man to use every means of escaping death …The difficulty, my friends, is not to avoid death, but to avoid unrighteousness…Wherefore, O judges, be of good cheer about death, and know of a certainty that no evil can happen to a good man in life or after death. –Socrates on doing right or wrong. From the series Great Ideas of Western Man.
