"If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military, the hired servants of our rulers. Only the government --and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws."
Edward Abbey
"But what do we mean by the American Revolution? Do we mean the American War? The revolution was effected before the war commenced. The revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people."
Geoffrey F. Abert

Geoffrey F. Abert
"Man [has] always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much-the wheel, New York, wars and so on-while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man-for precisely the same reason."
Douglas Noel Adams
"Ethical religion can be real only to those who are engaged in ceaseless efforts at moral improvement. By moving upward we acquire faith in an upward movement, without limit."
Felix Adler
"Beware that you do not lose the substance by grasping at the shadow."
Aesop
"Only cowards insult dying majesty."
Aesop
"Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow."
Aesop
"Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow."
Aesop
"In every child who is born, no matter what circumstances, and of no matter what parents, the potentiality of the human race is born again: and in him, too, once more, and of each of us, our terrific responsibility toward human life; toward the utmost idea of goodness, of the horror of terror, and of God."
James Agee

Russell G. Alexander
"I took a speed-reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia."
Woody Allen
"What is not good for the swarm is not good for the bee."
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
"Beware of the man of one book."
Saint Thomas Aquinas

Pietro Aretino
"Those who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people."
Aristotle
"We make war that we may live in peace."
Aristotle
"Trust each other again and again. When the trust level gets high enough, people transcend apparent limits, discovering new and awesome abilities for which they were previously unaware."
David Armistead
