    The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

    That's a great quote, Jake.

    Another guy who said essentially the same thing:

    A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. - John Stuart Mills
