Usage for HoS

Type: proverb - Source: TKW
HoS lIngwI' wIjuS
We're passing a power generator.
Type: sentence - Source: Conversational Klingon
tIqDaq HoSna' tu'lu'.
Real power is in the heart.
Type: proverb - Source: TKW
latlh De'/Additional Information

In this phrase, the heart stands for one's spirit or principles. One's ability to exert influence over others comes from having a strong sense of morality, not merely from the ability to dominate by force.

When the clone of Kahless was named emperor, the Klingon cleric Koroth objected that it would be meaningless since all power would still remain with the Klingon High Council. Worf used this adage to point out that Kahless's lack of political authority was not as important as his honor and virtue, which would make him an effective leader of his people.

You are a total waste of good energy!

Brute strength is not the most important asset in a fight.
Type: proverb - Source: TKW
latlh De'/Additional Information

As vital as musculature and weaponry are in winning battles or maintaining control, other qualities are equally if not more important. The unstated significance of this maxim is that intelligence and judgment play key roles in any confrontation.

When Worf learned that his father, who had been killed by Romulans in the Khitomer massacre, was later falsely accused of treason, he decided to exercise his responsibility as a son and appear before the Klingon High Council either to clear his father's name or to be punished for his crimes. According to Klingon custom, even though Worf was the one bringing the challenge, he was considered the accused since he would bear the punishment if the accusations against his father stood. During the course of the proceedings he was not permitted to participate in any fights himself, but instead was defended by an aide ("{cha'DIch}," literally, "second").

After Kurn, Worf's younger brother and first {cha'DIch}, was wounded, Worf asked Captain Picard to be his {cha'DIch}. Though, as Picard pointed out, stronger men were available, Worf preferred the captain, undoubtedly because of his shrewdness and loyalty. Such qualities are valued more than physical prowess alone.

This can only mean
Our family bonds are stronger
Than even death itself.

latlh De'/Additional Information
Klingon starship design is vastly different from Starfleet technology. A huge amount of the ship's power and technology is devoted to its weapons grid and defensive systems. Unlike most Starfleet vessels, the main viewer on a Klingon ship is usually overlaid with a complex target acquisition grid.

latlh De'/Additional Information
All Klingon vessels are equipped with a cloaking device, allowing the ship to fly in a state of practical invisibility. Cloaking technology was gained through an alliance with the Romulan Star Empire, possibly in exchange for Warp Drive technology. Due to the tremendous energy drain of a cloaking device, weapons cannot be discharged while the cloak is in operation.
