Explain the adage “The Pen is Mightier than the Sword”. (5points
"The pen is mightier than the sword" signifies that words are notably effective. Words are
more effective than violence or military power. It also means that communication and the
power of the independent press are more effective tools than violence.
Though the pen is smaller in size, it can achieve more than a sword. The capability of
writing is more significant than the power of hatred and war.
Therefore, through this adage, "The pen is mightier than the sword," we understand that
violence cannot change views or beliefs; one has to communicate through their writing to
understand the minds and hearts of the people. While the energy of the sword ends with
failure, sacrifice, and loss, the pen brings motive, impulse, and growth to the soul.
