Sinestro Corps - Oath

Oath

When recharging their power rings, members of the Sinestro Corps recite the following oath:

In blackest day, in brightest night,
Beware your fears made into light
Let those who try to stop what's right,
Burn like my power*... Sinestro's might!

—Sinestro, Green Lantern: Sinestro Corps Special #1 (June 2007)

  • "My power" becomes "his power" when recited by other members of the Corps.

Famous quotes containing the word oath:

    On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Whoever has had the experience of the moral sentiment cannot choose but believe in unlimited power. Each pulse from that heart is an oath from the Most High. I know not what the word sublime means, if it be not the intimations, in this infant, of a terrific force.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The oath of a lover is no stronger than the word of a
    tapster; they are both the confirmer of false reckonings.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
