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 Grand Master of the Tanaka Dojo has retired and turned the school over to the new Grand Master. His Daughter. I an told that she is the first Female Grand Master in 1200 years. I love her Katana. It is as simple and unassuming as death. Nothing Gaudy. Nothing showy. Just razor edged steel. Black Iron, and black silk Over Ray skin. ---Ray I like the Katana(and woman) in the photo. There is something about a Japanese woman in Yukata that is just..Right.
Best remain faithful to her.
