“Our duty is to rise in the bright daylight, openly, beating the drums. The cause for which we are ready to give our necks does not fear the light, and to attack the enemy by guile would not suit it.

We shall not fail to have enough strength to defeat our enemies if we do not fail to have the spirit of sacrifice and love.”

Kant thinks, as a matter of human nature, that this situation arises often enough and that we need a canon of judgment to guard against it.”
