Powerful weapons. You might be surprised how some people define them. Let’s look at a few quotes:
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson Mandela
“The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter.” –Mark Twain
“Prayer is a strong wall and fortress of the church; it is a goodly Christian weapon.” – Martin Luther
“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.
“Human curiosity, the urge to know, is a powerful force and is perhaps the best secret weapon of all in the struggle to unravel the workings of the natural world.” –Aaron Klug
Now it’s your turn. Choose from one of these options:
- Make up your own saying about a powerful weapon. In other words, in your opinion, what is a powerful weapon?
- Explain why you agree or disagree with any of the quotes above.
