It is not the ink and the paper that matter, but the hand that holds the pen.

About This Quote

The pen is mightier than the sword, and is often more important than the ink that is written on it. There are many authors who have written beautifully crafted writing, but without the pen, their writing would be meaningless. It’s not about the words; it’s about the author and his or her ability to convey a message and transmit it to others.
