By this sentence, Paul meant that peace and security are valuable, as shown in the first answer option.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Paul is a pacifist person.
  • He decided to join the German army and go to war because he was manipulated with ideas about patriotism and the duty to protect and build for the country.
