Luxemburg opposed the revolt, seeing it as premature - which it was, given the results. When it broke out, against her wishes, she actively participated in it, knowing that it would probably lead to her death.

Communist revolutionaries struggle for a better future with the knowledge that they will never see it themselves. History is a total process in which all participate, so our deaths come with the knowledge that our struggle for freedom will be inherited by the generations to come - may they redeem us if we fail! We all die eventually, why not voluntary go to the grave for the betterment of humanity?

>In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea;
>With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me,
>As He died to make men holy let us die to make men free!
>While God is marching on!
