#2 God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ... What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? 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. It is its natural manure.

#3 "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants."

Rings true today as it did when Jefferson said it...our politicians have ignored the people for way to long and when confronted with the ideals of our founding republic they fall back on abusive powers of govt. The genie that was let loose on this continent 200 years ago will only be put back in the bottle if - we the people - let it. We the people, never more powerfull words yet so fleeting if we do not stand up.
