George Orwell is credited for writing this. There are some who will disagree with this though.
The quote refers to the military and the protection they provide to the average person. The military member is prepared to act in a manner that many wouldn't in order to protect their way of life.

This quote is commonly attributed to George Orwell, though its precise origin is uncertain. The quote conveys the idea that society relies on the protection provided by those in law enforcement and the military who are willing to use force to maintain peace and security. Without their readiness to defend against threats, people would not be able to sleep peacefully.
