"...cause for the I as I, that is not just because of the possibility of
death within being, the "possibility of the impossible", but already
because of the possibility of sacrifice, the birth of meaning within the
dorkiness of being, the subordination of "the ability to die" to the
"ability to sacrifice oneself"."- Emmanuel Levinas, Die Versuchung der Versuchung/ The Temptation of Temptation, translation by me
So the second item on the wishlist was to be a sacrifice...
