• It may be that the human race is not ready for freedom. The air of liberty may be too rarefied for us to breathe... The paradox seems to be, as Socrates demonstrated long ago, that the truly free individual is free only to the extent of his own self-mastery.

And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it.
