I've learned that when someone does something very kind and refuses payment, giving them an engraved Swiss Army knife is never refused!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always wanted to go to Switzerland to see what the army does with those wee red knives.
There are very honest people who do not think that they have had a bargain unless they have cheated a merchant.
It's amazing how people will give when you don't ask. Many of them send money because they believe in the message.
We are never doing anyone any favors by withholding our gifts from the world. It's scary to be fierce, but you can't compromise that for fear of losing those around you.
I have always liked knives. Then somebody gave me one. Then somebody gave me another one. Then I liked having them and started buying them. I started finding ones I liked, ones with funky blades.
I think there's always going to be a problem dealing with firearms, with knives. It's the animal we are that cause the problems.

The rule in carving holds good as to criticism; never cut with a knife what you can cut with a spoon.
It is kindness to immediately refuse what you intend to deny.
