Paradise or sacrifice?

with 4 comments

People talk of the sacrifice I have made in spending so much of my life in Africa. Away with the word in such a view and with such a thought! It is emphatically no sacrifice. Say rather it is a privilege.  I never made a sacrifice.

–Speech by David Livingstone to students at Cambridge University (4 December 1857)
