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.

If you ever thought your military were shat upon by politicians you need to read the history of the Foreign Legion. Your politicians - of every stripe - are rank amateurs compared to the French.
