What a curious phenomenon it is that you can get men to die for the liberty of the world who will not make the little sacrifice that is needed to free themselves from their own individual bondage.

Summary

This quote highlights the paradoxical nature of human behavior. It points out the irony that individuals are often willing to fight for the freedom and liberty of others, but are unwilling to make the necessary sacrifices to free themselves from their own personal limitations or constraints. It raises the question of why people are more inclined to work towards the greater good rather than focusing on their own individual growth and liberation.
