And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

While restoring a chapel in England, which used to be used as a school, the workers discovered a squadron of 100 year old paper planes that mischievous schoolboys ( and it had to be boys) flew up into the eaves.

Pretty neat discovery.
