Quote by William Shakespeare
I am afeard there are few die well that die in battle, for how can they charitably dispose of anything when blood is their argument?
Summary
This quote suggests that those who die in battle often do not have the chance to make a meaningful or selfless final act. It implies that the intense violence and aggression present in warfare corrupts one's ability to act with compassion or generosity. 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.
