Gibson has been making the finest electric guitars the world has ever witnessed for over 70 years. They are as American as God, guns and rock and roll.

Without question, the Red Ryder BB gun is the most important gun in the history of American weaponry.

I surround myself with positive, productive people of good will and decency.

Without question Gibson guitars are the finest, most revered guitars on the planet.

Where you have the most armed citizens in America, you have the lowest violent crime rate. Where you have the worst gun control, you have the highest crime rate.

There are hundreds of millions of gun owners in this country, and not one of them will have an accident today. The only misuse of guns comes in environments where there are drugs, alcohol, bad parents, and undisciplined children. Period.

It was psychobabbler Abraham Maslow who wrote of the phenomena of self-actualization. What Maslow failed to grasp is that reaching true self-actualization can only be ultimately achieved when you have your own brand of ammunition.

If the road is easy, you're likely going the wrong way.

People are stupid. They will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true.

Sometimes, making the wrong choice is better than making no choice. You have the courage to go forward, that is rare. A person who stands at the fork, unable to pick, will never get anywhere.

I am who I am; no more, no less.

Love is not about what you want. It's about finding happiness for the one you love.

Wizards First Rule: People are Stupid

Nothing marks a man's character better than his attraction to intelligence.

Your life is your own. Rise up and live it.

You can't argue with the fools in the world. It's better to let them have their way, then trick them when they're not paying attention.

Knowledge is a destination. Truth, the journey.

Only those you trust can betray you" ~ Nathan

Admitting that you do not know something is the first step to learning.

...Wizard's Fifth Rule: Mind what people do, not only what they say, for deeds will betray a lie.

Knowledge is a weapon. I intend to be formidably armed.

Nothing gained without cost is valued. Freedom has a cost, and all will bear it so all will value and preserve it.

No army has ever marched into battle thinking that the Creator had sided with their enemy.

Once you place that crown of liar on your head, you can take it off again, but it leaves a stain for all time.

Fate does not seek our consent.

We all can be only who we are, no more, no less.

Nothing is ever easy

Charity, if you have the means, is a personal choice, but charity which is expected or compelled is simply a polite word for slavery.

When the whole world is crazy, it doesn't pay to be sane.

The sun has already set on the days we made those choices. We must concentrate on what we can do tomorrow; we can't relive yesterday.

Knowing when to fight is just as important as knowing how.

Think of the solution, not the problem

Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent." -Kahlan

The light of a new day always chases the shadows of the night away, and shows us that the shape of our fears is only the ghost of our own minds.

If you are unwilling to defend your right to your own lives, then you are merely like mice trying to argue with owls. You think their ways are wrong. They think you are dinner.

Once lucky, twice confident, and thrice dead.

Once you teach me something, it's mine to use.

Not everyone is willing to embrace liberty; liberty requires not just effort, but risk. Some people choose to delude themselves and see their chains as protective armor.

Every person's life is theirs by right. An individual's life can and must belong only to to himself, not to any society or community, or he is then but a slave.

Wizard's Sixth Rule The only sovereign you can allow to rule you is reason.

In the darkest hours we must believe in ourselves.

Wizard's Fourth Rule There is magic in sincere forgiveness; in the forgiveness you give, but more so in the forgiveness you receive.

The Wizard's First Rule: People are stupid; given proper motivation almost anyone will believe almost anything.

Deserve Victory

Reality is irrelevant; Perception is everything.

Only a fool walks into the future backwards.

History is rarely made by reasonable men.

Everything is valuable under the right conditions. To a man dying of thirst, water be more precious than gold. To a drowning man, water be of little worth and great trouble.

Right and wrong are not the product of census.

Wrong doing must be punished. If not, it will proliferate until anarchy wears the robes of tolerance and understanding.
