One of the commonly misquoted verses is "Those that live by the sword shall die by the sword". See my tagline I have used for years for the correct wording.

That's not the correct wording, it is one of many translations into English of the correct wording, which is in ancient koine Greek.

For some of the many other translations.

http://bible.cc/matthew/26-52.htm

I know of no translation that says "live by the sword."
