The part of Goethe's famous quote "You must be hammer or anvil" that's rarely understood is that the anvil is not what breaks, but the hammer.

Which, oddly enough, Kipling understood quite well apparently, but there are many Kiplings.

A good thing to keep in mind also when watching The Prisoner episode, "Hammer into Anvil."
