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.
I recognized the picture. But I also understood that this was not the only time that had happened. Brave men have given all for centuries, and continue to give all for this nation. Let us always remember what this day is for.
