If your life, or the life of someone you love, is hanging in the balance, of course you would withstand any amount of abuse to get the job done and to get the life saved.

Life's pretty good, and why wouldn't it be? I'm a pirate, after all. (Alger William R.)
Sticks an' stones, love. I've saved your life an' you've saved mine. We're square. (Alger William R.)
