    ‘‘Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest.’’
    — Mahatma Ghandi, "Gandhi, An Autobiography", page 446

    When the man who epitomizes pacifism supports gun ownership, do you really need to quote anyone else?

    Just look at my sig.
    ==============
    “If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!”
    ~Samuel Adams

    "I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it."
    ~Thomas Jefferson, 1791

    Sorry that this was not from a founding father but it is very motivational to me.

    "The saddest thing in life is wasted talent."
    Lorenzo - "A Bronx Tale."
    "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."
    - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

    Dependence begets subservience and venality, suffocates the germ of virtue, and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition.

    Thomas Jefferson, Notes on the State of Virginia, Query 19, 1787

    Shows a lot of foresight into the condition of many Americans today. What rights can be bought or traded for the promise of prosperity?
