Don't lose your tools!

“Dost thou not mark and consider how the smith, mason, or carpenter or any other handy-craftsman, what need soever he be in, ... he will not sell nor lay to pledge the tools of his occupation, ... for then how should he get a living thereby? Of like mind and affection ought we to be towards holy scripture. For as mallets, hammers, saws, chisels, axes and hatchets be the tools of their occupation, so be the books of the prophets and apostles, and all holy writ inspired by the Holy Ghost the instrument of our salvation”

Thomas Cranmer (1489-1556)
