I saw Oberon charge into the fray on a huge black warhorse, glamour swirling around him, and sweep a hand toward the thickest of the fighting. Vines and roots erupted from the ground, coiling around the Iron fey, strangling them or pulling them beneath the earth. Atop a rise, Mab raised her arms, and a savage whirlwind swept across the field, freezing fey solid or impaling them with ice shards. The armies of Summer and Winter howled with renewed vigor and threw themselves at the enemy. . Julie Kagawa
About This Quote

In this quote, Shakespeare captures the notion that we can take down our enemies with a single strike if we strike hard enough. He goes on to describe magic and power in general as unique to individual beings. There is no one else that can wield magic or command power quite like the person who is described in the quote. You are your own most powerful weapon.

You are someone who can hold your own against any foe, because you are stronger than the world around you. Will you use that power to fight for justice? Or will you be content to live your life away from the world, cowering in fear of anyone who might challenge you?
