The wise person values the honor.

There may be some people who would have such doubt as; a person who takes too much care of keeping own life cannot be considerate to the others.
But wise person values the honor. For this reason, wise person won't care about own life and gives one's life for what is right and die for the crisis of integrity. If one thinks of taking care of oneself and oneself alone, and tries to avoid to hurt a hair or to have scrape, this person would surely try to avoid hurting oneself when this person faces to the crisis of integrity. That is the possibility, but I'd answer to the doubt as followings.

There are status of static and dynamic. In static status you do statically and you act dynamic when you are in dynamic status. You act upon status of the honor. It is the correct behavior to stay in static while the status stays in static and you take good care of your life. It is the behavior of honor not to take care of your life while in the status of dynamic. What is required here is that you respect the honor as the status tells. And you can throw away the doubt brought up.

It is the best to follow the way as the situation or status tell and to be flexible with it. It can be said that you wear thinner in summer and wear thick in winter. The core is that you cannot behave same and you should not cling to the customs.

It is impossible to fight whenever necessary unless you keep your body in good condition and none of the bad health can fight at all. Then it is the best to take good care of yourself while in the status of static so that you can show your courage whenever required.
