I am going to disagree. A warrior fights. That is the very definition of a warrior. Fighting for good or bad, it is irrelevent. A good warrior fights because he has to. A bad warrior fights because he wants to. The statement that no one has the right to take a life is complete nonsense. The entire world is founded on survival. Why you take a life will determine if you are good or bad, but the simple fact of taking a life is not inherently good or bad, it is based upon the circumstances. This level of denying reality makes good quotes for those easily swayed by lovely ideas, but it does nothing for those who have ever fought to survive and it certainly does not reflect the reality that this world exists in. Sitting Bull may have been a great man, but the battle of Little Big Horn proved that these words were uttered to tickle the ears of the gullible. Make no mistake, he was a Good warrior that fought to defend his people and they were right to kill the US Army soldiers that came to massacre and subdue his people, but these words are in direct opposition to his actions. I would far more respect a statement that warriors fight for Justice and Righteousness and the defense of the innocent than this sort of platitude.
