“Though these young men unhappily fail to
understand that the sacrifice of life is, in many cases, the easiest of
all sacrifices, and that to sacrifice, for instance, five or six years of
their seething youth to hard and tedious study, if only to multiply

before them as their goal--such a sacrifice is utterly beyond the strength
of many of them. ”
