Wisdom of the Founders

"The citizen's chief duty is to throw sand in the eye of anyone who dares enslave him." - Moira Ceredo, fighter-philosopher and Founding Mother

"Humanity's greatest weapon is a book. It is both the whetstone and anvil upon which the mind and the heart become the sword and the shield.
And in a tight spot you can bludgeon a son of a bitch with one." - Edward Lenehan, statesman, brewer, and first Consul of the Western Porches

"Now I ain't no expert, but I always assumed 'patriotism' and 'skepticism' was the same thing." - Donnel Speirs, founding Marshal of the Interior Land Forces
