The Marrow Thieves

Do you agree with Miig? Why or why not?

“Knowing only that he’s close by, but impossibly out of reach. Knowing only that your people could be strapped into some kind of machine that chews them up and spits out bone mush and sticky sap. It’s much better to freeze and bleed a free man.”

In context, Miig is referring to freedom and the fear of capture and tortuous death. He is referring to the difference between death due to circumstances (weather, attack), as opposed to be locked up and ground up like a piece of meat... like something unhuman. I'd have to say that I agree.
