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 tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

When I was a kid I liked to catch Blue Bellied Lizards and goad them into biting my finger. I was always delighted by how surprisingly hard the little fellows can chomp down.
Reminds me of a picture that I took while I was out on the trout stream last year. A big water snake that was sitting on the bank decided to latch onto the toe of my waders when I gave it a little nudge............
