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.
This reminds me of the days Dad and I would pack in to the Sangre de Cristo (blood of christ) mountains and fish for native cutthroat trout in the Nambe river. Further up the trail and above tree line we drop down just below tree line and camp at lake Catharine. What a beautiful place. After three days our supplies would be spent and trout would take up the now vacant space in our back packs.
