Painted nails,
Sketched faces,
Plastered smiles,
Uncovered bodies,
Blood-smeared hands,
Honesty ends.
Prejudieced opinions,
Persisting racism,
Viscious intentions,
Greedy interventions,
Virtual life,
Sexual assault,
Merciless stance,
Facebook romance,
Evolving technology,
Undying poverty,
Fading religion.
Is that a society?
What is it?
When actions speak louder than words then why is a pen mightier than a sword?
We have all been hearing the cliche expression, “actions speak louder than words” and are apparently in doldrums when we hear such banal quotes. While I was making running notes in a lecture, this absurd statement crossed my mind, “a pen is mightier than a sword.” A sword is analogous to action and a pen to words. This judgement draws me to a state of confusion and conclusion that words exert more power than actions which blatantly contradicts the former quote.
These contrary expressions are gnawing my brain ever since I thought of them.
