Duty to the living

In 14th-century England, no crime was worse than trying to betray the crown.

 

‘If we are to save ourselves and those that come after us from a renewal in an even more frightful form of all that we suffered in the Great War, we must by our every action, in our everyday conversation, and even in our very thoughts seek peace […] If we have a duty to our dead, we have also a duty to the living.

 

 Prince of Wales
