A Maori proverb‚ roughly translated into English‚ reads: “A safe man wants to be free and a free man wants to be safe.” Truly‚ this proverb dichotomizes the two things many societies are striving for. However‚ without safety‚ people will not strive directly for freedom. This is represented clearly in many developing countries where the circumstances force the “average man” to strive for only the security of his life.
