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.

My dream job: flying a fleet of bush planes in Alaska.
Bag the day job and go do it. I hate to say this, but you're not getting any younger. When you're rocking on that porch, shotgun across your lap, loyal ridgeback at your side thinking about your glory days you don't want to look back with regrets.

It's a calling more than a job.
