This one is my favorite so far, by far.
 
“Above average people talk about ideas.
Average people talk about events.
Below average people talk about other people.”

“It’s not the size of the dog in a fight that matters, it’s the size of the fight in the dog that matters.”

”Man, I wonder what the poor folks are doing? “

We were at a buddys cabin, sitting around a campfire and my dad said this exact quote.

Now this is the Law of the Jungle -- As old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf who shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back --
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
 
Having served in the military and from a military family a couple from that…

”Imbrace the Suck!!!”

”The only easy day was yesterday!”


And in our family’s fighting spirit…

“Fight on my men,"
I am hurt,but I am not slain;
I'll lay me down and bleed a-while,
And then I'll rise and fight again".”​

― Thomas Moore

And growing up in the west and in the immortal words of Toby Kieth…

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?
