Another Pair of Homonyms: Piece and Peace

"There.  I've said my peace."

That should look wrong to anyone who reads a lot, but I think some people who started to read when they're adults tend to read in such vast gulps of text, racing to get to the end of each book, that particular combinations of words don't have the opportunity to make an impact.

Peace=the opposite of hostility.

Piece=a part of something. 

'My piece'=what I wanted to say.
