From this it is clear how much more cruel the pen is than the sword.

How much more cruel the pen may be than the sword

From this it appears how much more cruel the pen may be than the sword. [Lat., Hinc quam sit calamus saevior euse, patet.]

They say, The pen is mightier than the sword, and the keystroke is mightier still. I say, The pen is mightier than the sword, while the keystroke is a mischief.

The pen is mightier than the sword.

Anyone who thinks the pen is mightier than the sword has not been stabbed with both.
