Treat the Earth well,
It was not given to you by your parents,
It was loaned to you by your children.
Indian Proverb
If you are not working to protect hunting, then you are working to destroy it.
Fred Bear
In matters like hunting and fishing and falconry, mentors are priceless. They teach you nuance, and detail, and what is really important.
Charles Fergus
If there is a sacred moment in the ethical pursuit of game, it is the moment you release the arrow or touch off the fatal shot.
Jim Posewitz
My first sight was a kitchen match held to the bow with a rubber band.
Fred Bear
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
