What does 'if you have to crawl to live, stand and die' mean. Does it mean keep your dignity??What is your interpretation. I'm thinking of getting 'know yourself' down my spine' for a good while now...??

It's about not being a slave. So rather than having someone rule over you, stand up for yourself and fight.
Better to die on your feet, than to live on your knees....that kinda thing. It's about freedom, and yeah dignity is a big part of that.
