"<p>The value of life can only be given by the service we give to the cause of the people. This may sound a bit harsh and general, but it is the only truth I have come to know with all its consequences. No one can sit in the flower field, like Ferdinand the bull, and smell the beautiful flowers with impunity. You are a man, therefore you must live like a man and among men.</p> <p>You live like a man if you live justly. If at the bottom of all your actions and words is the intention: not to harm people. If you try - without ostentation or vanity - to help people. Sometimes just by not being silent about simple truths. Sometimes just by not telling what others lie about. Sometimes just by not saying yes when everyone is shouting, "Yes, yes!" A lifetime of consistently not agreeing with what people lie about is greater heroism than occasionally protesting it loudly and banging your chest.</p> <p>On your deathbed, you will rest easy only if you have served the truth every day, with all your consciousness. Sometimes justice is very simple and petty. But you do not be picky. That is the value of life.</p>"
