Is the pen really mightier then the sword?
It would seem to me, this too often used saying is altruistic nonsense, said by those thinking they can change the world with some well phrased bumper sticker slogan.
In reality, the pen is only mightier then the sword when the sword is the size of a pen, and the pen itself is very sharp. The likelihood of either being the case is slim to none, unless your fighting against a midget, or have a habit of lugging around a giant sword sized pen. In either case, one can only hope you have video evidence you can display in the future to unequivocally back your trite statement "The pen is mightier then the sword."
