A sledgehammer breaks glass but forges steel.

"We do not change our course" (1938)Leon Trotsky
He came like a sledgehammer, like a giant out of the mountain with a sledgehammer, writing with a sledgehammer...

My poems please the brave:
My poems, short and sincere,
Have the force of steel
Which forges swords.Jose Marti
Steel on the skyline
Sky made of glass
Made for a real world
All things must pass
Ooo
Waiting for something
Looking for someone
Is there no reason?David Bowie
He is as loving and tender as a child, but strong and sturdy as a rock. When on Sundays I ride him through the lanes in the outskirts of the town, slow-moving countrymen, dressed in their Sunday clean, watch him a while, speculatively:
"He is like steel," they say.
Steel, yes. Steel and moon silver at the same time.Juan Ramon Jimenez
These shapes are all out of someone's mind. That's important to see. The steel? Hell, even the steel is out of someone's mind. There's no steel in nature. Anyone from the Bronze Age could have told you that. All nature has is a potential for steel. There's nothing else there. But what's "potential"? That's also in someone's mind!
