The Pen Is Mightier Than the sword
(the written word is more powerful than physical force)
It's true! The pen is mightier than the sword! I just got a letter from the president of the corporation that made my car. I've been having trouble with the alignment and steering column almost from the day I bought it.
Did you take it back to the dealer?
I sure did, but he kept claming that everything seemed OK. I got so angry that I almost came to blows with the guy, but I decided against force and instead I wrote a letter to the president of the company. As you can see, he wrote back and not only did he apologize for the way I was treated, he offered to let me trade in the car for a brand new one at no additional cost!
Congratulations! You've proved that the written word is more powerful than physical force.
