I wrote this because I had tons of quotes that came from wisdom I never knew I had helping me to learn the lesson(s) of each quote. I've altered the quotes to create a poem in hopes that I can share my wisdom and knowledge as a wielder of electric magic.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In all my years as a fighter,
I found an amazing diet:
He who lives by the sword
Will surely die by it.

I never liked History classes,
Though if they were a game I'd beat it;
Failure to learn from them though,
Would doom us to repeat it.

I'd have to have true wisdom to say
That if all the world's a stage,
I'd like to be an actor,
And play a wise old sage.

They say good always triumphs
Over evil in the end,
But if that's true then tell me why
The villains never bend.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

This is full of truth

Cold hands means a warm heart
