Words are powerful.Nothing has had a greater impact on the minds of the people more than reading and writing.One person can cause people to change their opinions whereas a sword can only change a person's opinion by force.What is your say?

Wow.. a deep thinking indeed. I like your discussion, brisk123. I know that even before, but I never have any idea how to use that. But you have enlightening me with your words today, that words and people opinion has a very big power to move people, and that is seen from how the press in every country can make public opinion changed from time to time. I wonder if you are a writer because you know this proverbs which really well-known in journalistic people.

Thank you dear,I will take it as a compliment.But it is true,that every big fight can be won and ended with kind words, a lot of difference can be made and hearts can be captured, whereas swords only spread violence nothing else.
Power of words is far greater than aggression.Sometimes words feel shaper than a sword. Words can be piercing at times.Happy myLotting!

That is so very true. Something gained by force is truly not something that induces a sense of pride but something gained through enlightenment, which comes often with the written word allows a much deserved sense of pride.I have always loved to read and write and have learned far more from books then I could have ever learned in school - books taught me about life, pain, happiness, laughter and so much more. As far as writing this has always been a method that I have adopted to share or get control of my feelings. Great point you made. Thank you~
