The Pen is Mightier That the Sword

I chose this quote (said by Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1839)Because I think it delivers a very inspiring message; there are better ways to solve or even just attempt to solve a problem that attacking it with a sword. This is important to me because in everyday life we run into a lot of dilemas, and some basic problems solving skills can be incredibly useful. Say you’re having a problem with some of your friends. If approach the situation with a razor-sharp sword in your hand your more likely to loose that friendship than you are if you approach it with a good attitude. It really surprised me when I first read this because it conveyed so much information and such a powerful moral for one single line of writing.
