One of my 18th great-grandfathers is Sir Laurence Cheney (c. 1396 – 1461). Dick Cheney is also descended from him.
I'm descended through Elizabeth Cheney (Apr 1422 – 25 Sep 1473) who was the great-grandmother of Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, and Catherine Howard. Dick is descended through her brother John.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.
