I saw battle-corpses, myriads of them,
And the white skeletons of young men-I saw them;
I saw the debris and debris of all the dead soldiers of the war;
But I saw they were not as was thought;
They themselves were fully at rest-they suffered not;
The living remained and suffered-the mother suffered,
And the wife and the child, and the musing comrade suffered,
And the armies that remained suffered.
Walt Whitman

If life itself is not the most fundamental of all rights, then what is?
