The wise man does not expose himself needlessly to danger, since there are few things for which he cares sufficiently; but he is willing, in great crises, to give even his life - knowing that under certain conditions it is not worthwhile to live.
明智的人不会把自己不必要地暴露在危险之中，因为很少有事情是他足够关心的;但他愿意在重大危机中献出自己的生命——他知道，在某些情况下，活着是不值得的。
