This is a very random question, but ...
What do you think that saying means?
Should it have been worded differently?
Any random thoughts on it?
I've been thinking about the saying lately and wanted to hear other people's views on what it means or any random thoughts that pop into their heads when hearing it. I'm also going to give an answer:
I understand the meaning behind it as words and communication being more powerful than wars and fighting. However, I think it was worded badly. Taken in the literal sense and some mongoloids may take it, it can be disproved: bring your pen and I'll bring my sword, and while you are writing I will slit your throat. I think it was just worded in a way that confuses people in an attempt to make it sound more intelligent. I think the much more blunt meaning of the use of words being more powerful than that of fighting sounds much more intelligent, makes more sense, and cannot be misinterpreted.
That saying has just always annoyed me and I wanted to hear everyone else's thoughts on it.
