1st U.S. President
Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples’ liberty’s teeth.
Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
”While we are zealously performing the duties of good citizens and soldiers, we certainly ought not to be inattentive to the higher duties of religion. To the distinguished character of Patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of Christian.”
–The Writings of Washington, pp. 342-343.
