Men do not suffer anyone to seize their estates, and they rush to stones and arms if there is even the slightest dispute about the limit of their lands, yet they allow others to trespass upon their life — nay, they themselves even lead in those who will eventually possess it.  No one is to be found who is willing to distribute his money, yet among how many does each one of us distribute his life!
