When strength is yoked with justice, where is a mightier pair than they?

Aeschylus

The pen is mightier than the sword, but the tongue is mightier than them both put together.

Ideas go booming through the world louder than cannon. Thoughts are mightier than armies. Principles have achieved more victories than horsemen or chariots.

William McGregor Paxton

The gun is mightier than the pen, was our true opinion, and the RPG is mightier still.

Lydia Millet

For mightier far Than strength of nerve or sinew, or the sway Of magic potent over sun and star, Is love, though oft to agony distrest, And though his favourite be feeble woman's breast.

William Wordsworth

Nobles by the right of an earlier creation, and priests by the imposition of a mightier hand.

Thomas B. Macaulay

The truth is mightier than eloquence, the Spirit greater than genius, faith more than education.

Martin Luther

The mightier man, the mightier is the thing That makes him honored or begets him hate; For greatest scandal waits on greatest state.

William Shakespeare

When you kill a beast, say to him in your heart: ~By the same power that slays you, I too am slain, and I too shall be consumed. ~For the law that delivers you into my hand shall deliver me into a mightier hand. ~Your blood and my blood is naught but the sap that feeds the tree of heaven.

Khalil Gibran

I have thoughts - obtrusive thoughts and rituals that have to - it's like a broken re - a skipping record. And if these thoughts or these triggers happen to me through maybe shaking a hand or just a thought or just - then I can't get past it and move on with my life.

Howie Mandel

Swami Vivekananda

In times past...it was my habit to talk glibly of the right of man to land. It was a bad habit, and I long ago sloughed it off. Man's only right to land is his might over it. If his neighbor is mightier than he and takes the land from him, then the land is his neighbor's, until the latter is dispossessed by one mightier still.

Benjamin Tucker

It takes us long to learn that prayer is more important than organization, more powerful than armies, more influential than wealth and mightier than all learning.
