Precisely because a living being may die,.... : Quote by Judith Butler

“ Precisely because a living being may die, it is necessary to care for that being so that it may live. Only under conditions in which the loss would matter does the value of the life appear. Thus, grievability is a presupposition for the life that matters. ”
