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.
I lived on Kyushu from 1978 to 1980 and loved it. In 1986. I went back with my wife, spending a week in Tokyo then another week in Kyushu. I much prefer the pace of the southwest compared to Tokyo. Just about everyone is unfailingly polite and considerate. Given all that, its a bit surprising how racist many of them are towards other Asians, especially Koreans. The 70s were prior to their real-estate driven economic woes, so i don't know what it's really like now.
I have been to that one on an island. Lots of deer, lots of tourist. My wife and I had large fried oysters for lunch. I almost died from food poisoning but the wife was ok. I will never eat another oyster again.
I truly love the Japanese.

ReplyDeleteWhoever took this photo must have taken it in the really morning or evening, before or after the tourist horde crush.
