It has been my misfortune to be engaged in more battles than any other general on the other side of the Atlantic; but there was never a time during my command when I would not have chosen some settlement by reason rather than the sword.
Ulysses S. Grant
Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon. which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it. It is a sword that heals.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Bigotry and intolerance, silenced by argument, endeavors to silence by persecution, in old days by fire and sword, in modern days by the tongue
Charles Simmons
There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills.
Buddha
[2/12/04, on souvenirs from Middle-earth] I got Sam`s backpack, which began to feel like a second skin, albeit a very uncomfortable skin. I also got to keep Sam`s sword, as well as some Hobbit feet and ears. I can take them out and make the whole family s...

I`d wanted to get stuck into the action on Pirates of the Caribbean and I asked Jerry [Jerry Bruckheimer] if I could have a sword fight in that, and he more than made up for it in King Arthur (2004) by giving me axe fights, knife fights, and all the rest ...
Keira Knightley
The benefits from stardom as Klinger outweigh any setbacks. It`s a double-edged sword. What makes you famous is what interferes with getting other roles. But there are things that never would have happened without M*A*S*H" (1972). There certainly would be...
Jamie Farr
Mainstream America is depending on you - counting on you - to draw your sword and fight for them. These people have precious little time or resources to battle misguided Cinderella attitudes, the fringe propaganda of the homosexual coalition, the feminist...
Charlton Heston
But I always liked the Greek outfits. They were sexier than the Romans`, you`ve got to admit. And they didn`t wear sandals. They wore boots. So don`t call it a sword-and-sandal (movie), for Christ`s sake! It`s sword-and-boot, OK? [on `Alexander`]

I was on my way out of a Sunday rehearsal. When I was walking out of the gym, all sort of sweaty, half in street clothes and half in Aragorn`s clothes, waiving the sword around, trying to keep a mental picture of what we`ve just done. Just walking down th...
Viggo Mortensen
I love doing Callisto. It`s therapy. I mean, wouldn`t you love it, if you got to scream and yell and you got to fight people and you got a sword and no one yelled at you? ... No, I didn`t study ... It`s just from the inside.
Hudson Leick
I loved playing Go Go, because the character`s so extreme. And she`s pretty close to my real character. Especially the fact that she liked her sword and lots of accessories.
Chiaki Kuriyama
[on portraying famous people]: It`s a double-edged sword because, in one sense, you have a lot of material to work with, but in a strange kind of way, that puts up a framework that you have to keep within. You can`t play Beethoven with pink hair but, to a...

Women who wear kimonos, when the fight, they have to keep their knees together, and when they use a sword, they have to move the sleeves otherwise it gets caught.
Lucy Liu
To this wonderful page in our country`s history another more glorious still will be added, and the slave shall show at last to his free brothers a sharpened sword forged from the links of his fetters.
Alex Solis
There are two powers in the world; one is the sword and the other is the pen. There is a great competition and rivalry between the two. There is a third power stronger than both, that of the women.
Ambrosia Anderson
The most mysterious feminine factor, the existence that we men, we don`t know. It`s woman. It`s feminine. That`s what the sword is about. That`s the symbolic meaning of the sword.

Shows can come and go. They can be a hit and then in three years, gone. There`s some comfort in having the stability of a job and having children. It`s a double-edged sword.
