Kind words conquer (Tamil proverb)

Kind words conquer
As do marching armies

Kind words heal
Whilst armies do not

The pen is mightier
Than is the sword

But if the ink runs dry
And the sword is sharp...

So let's blunt our swords
With kind words

Kind words conquer
Do they not?

    Kind words do conquer. Unfortunately sometimes only after much bloodshed. Good job.

    Very powerful. Use kind words share love is not a new concept, but it works much better than the sword and easier to clean up after.
