Introduction:
Sacrificing your life for another is perhaps the most courageous thing you can do.
If you give money to help a friend, it is not sacrifice; if you give it to a worthless
stranger, it is. If you give your friend a sum you can afford, it is not a sacrifice; if
you give him money at the cost of your own discomfort, it is only a partial virtue,
according to this sort of moral standard; if you give him money at the cost of
disaster to yourself—that is the virtue of sacrifice in full.
