Summary

This quote suggests that maintaining and preserving freedom is not something that can be effectively entrusted to those who are weak in character or lacking in courage. History has taught us that the responsibility of protecting and upholding freedom requires strength, resilience, and boldness. It implies that individuals who lack the courage to stand up for freedom may not be able to withstand the challenges and hardships that come with preserving it. Courageous and determined individuals are therefore essential in safeguarding the ideals of freedom for future generations.
