Happy Patriot's Day!

Thomas Jefferson

"The flames kindled on the 4 of July 1776, have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism; on the contrary, they will consume these engines and all who work them."

John Adams
1763 - An Essay on Man's Lust for Power

"Democracy will soon degenerate into an anarchy, such an anarchy that every man will do what is right in his own eyes and no man's life or property or reputation or liberty will be secure, and every one of these will soon mould itself into a system of subordination of all the moral virtues and intellectual abilities, all the powers of wealth, beauty, wit and science, to the wanton pleasures, the capricious will, and the execrable cruelty of one or a very few."

Remember - Freedom is not Free. Keep in mind today our brothers and sisters in arms on the front-lines stoking the fires of democracy and freedom. Also beware of the degeneration caused by Man's lust for power foreshadowed by Mr. Adams in 1763...it is visible all around us. Stay strong and be an example for the weak.
