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.
25 years ago, I used to be deck crew on Pioneer in NYC. There was something amazing about being out on the bowsprit furling jibs as darkness fell. I really can't put it into words. Those moments are some of my most treasured memories.
That's one way to spell FREEDOM.
