It is computed that eleven thousand persons have at several times suffered
death, rather than submit to break their
eggs at the smaller end. Hyperbole or irony explanation

Is there really anything to explain here?

Explanation:

I think its irony because the meaning of the test is that people were fighting over and making a big fuss over something small like "to break their

eggs at the smaller end." this is ironic since people are not usually willing to give their life for something this small

can someone translate this for me? it is arabic but it is distorted and altered
