Thomas Jefferson on Gun Control
Thomas Jefferson
“For exercise I recommend vigorous walking… and carrying a gun. The gun’s weight will increase the level of exercise and the possession of a gun on a walk produces real confidence.”
Thomas Jefferson

And sometimes you weep. ~ Carl Sandburg

The Roles of Sorrow
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And never a word said she;
But, Oh, the things I learned from her
When Sorrow walked with me!

Standing Up
GHTime Code(s): nc
“You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.”
- Abraham Lincoln
