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 image shows an aerial view of Palmarola Island, part of the Pontine Islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the west coast of Italy. Palmarola is a craggy, mostly uninhabited island known for its natural beauty, including grottos, bays, cliffs, and unique rock formations like the Faraglioni di Mezzogiorno and the Cattedrale. It is a nature reserve and was famously described by Jacques-Yves Cousteau as "The most Beautiful Island in the Mediterranean Sea". While primarily a nature reserve, there are a few landing spots for boats and one restaurant open during the summer season. The island is accessible by private boat or regularly scheduled shuttle boats from Ponza. Palmarola is also a place of historical significance, as Pope Silverius was exiled and died there in 538 AD, later becoming the patron saint of Ponza.
I don't know where that is, but I want to be there !!!
