- There is no thing more blasphemous than Destruction
- A person is like gold. Soft and brittle but easy to shape into something wonderful.
- The community is like a machine of many moving parts
- Just as fire uncontrolled brings death, fire controlled ensures life
- Only those who craft something of excellence may proceed into the The Forge that is His home
- The greatest reward comes from the hardest labor
- Dwarves are His children, wrought from the earth, but just as a good father claims no favorite child, Tilanos most holy welcomes all into his fold
- Holy men of all faiths are to be treated with the reverence of one of His own
- Even the hardest stone can be worked with enough patience
- Children are sacred to Our Father, as nothing is more sacred than an act of Creation wrought of love
