As Westley is about to fight Fezzik, he says, "You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword and we'll try to killeach other like civilized people?" What message might the writer, William Goldman, be trying to make here?

He could also be meaning not civilized people use weapons over thier own brains
