When you are Anvil, hold you still ;
When you are Hammer, strike your Fill.

 
Thomas (writer) Fuller
 

If I had a hammer,
I'd hammer in the morning
I'd hammer in the evening,
All over this land.
I'd hammer out danger,
I'd hammer out a warning,
I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters,
All over this land...
Well I got a hammer,
And I got a bell,
And I got a song to sing, all over this land.
It's the hammer of Justice,
It's the bell of Freedom,
It's the song about Love between my brothers and my sisters,
All over this land.

 
Pete Seeger

Bill Bryson

Art is not a mirror to hold up to society, but a hammer with which to shape it.
