"Certaines batailles sont gagnées avec des épées et des lances d'autres avec des plumes et des corbeaux"
— George R.R. Martin
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, we solve our problems with strength and force, like warriors using swords and spears in a fight. Other times, we achieve our goals through thinking, writing, and communicating, like writers using pens and messengers delivering news. For example, when people protest peacefully and write letters to bring change instead of fighting, they are using their minds and words to win their battles. A famous example is Martin Luther King Jr., who used powerful speeches and peaceful protests to fight for civil rights rather than resorting to violence. It's a way of saying that wisdom and communication can be just as powerful as physical strength. So, when facing challenges, we should think about the best way to address them; sometimes a thoughtful approach can be more effective than force.
