I was taught not to judge a book by its cover, yet when I look at the violently embossed MollaSpace Armed Notebooks, I can't help but think that any owner of one should have an eye watching over him at all times.
Of course, as Edward Bulwer-Lytton once said, "the pen is mightier than the sword," which may forever ring true. The message behind the knife, revolver and grenade-covered MollaSpace Armed Notebooks is that their pages should be filled with thoughts and intelligent discourse that could out-battle any weapon.
