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 wooden replica of a Viking longboat was discovered during archaeological excavations at Winetavern Street, Dublin. Dating from the 12th century AD, the vessel originally had a mast & sail and was probably a much loved toy
Proof of where my 3% Irish ancestry comes from…😜
