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.
Reminds me of firewheel flowers here in TX - grow wild all over the place. Usually see them in May after the bluebonnets and Indian Paint Brush in April.
Lovely. Seems a long while ago.
