Summary

This quote suggests that those who die in battle often do not have the chance to make a meaningful or selfless final act.

The reference to "blood" as their only justification emphasizes the destructive nature of war, suggesting that it impedes a person's ability to make a peaceful and benevolent departure from life.

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
