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.

The roses around here are at about their peak. The aroma is unbelievable.
Had rose bushes almost as tall as my house back in Emeryville. The smell was like a drug. I would sit out there for ours on the porch when I was in town and they were in bloom.
Beautiful. Mine are far behind yours...
ReplyDeleteAh, the sweet, awesome attar of roses beats the intoxicating stink of "weed" by a country mile.
