It's not what someone says to me that matters in the long run. It's what they do. Said more eloquently:
I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts. ~John Locke
When deeds speak, words are nothing. ~African Proverb
Well done is better than well said. ~Benjamin Franklin
Words without actions are the assassins of idealism. ~Herbert Hoover
Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. Trust movement. ~Alfred Adler
A promise is a cloud; fulfillment is rain. ~Arabian Proverb
Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold, but so does a hard-boiled egg. ~Author Unknown
Talk doesn't cook rice. ~Chinese Proverb
Ironically, making a statement with words is the least effective method. ~Grey Livingston
Just as a flower, which seems beautiful has color but no perfume, so are the fruitless words of a man who speaks them but does them not. ~Dhammapada
We are all inclined to judge ourselves by our ideals; others, by their acts. ~Harold Nicolson
Suit the action to the word, the word to the action. ~Shakespeare
As I grow older I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do. ~Andrew Carnegie
Between saying and doing many a pair of shoes is worn out. ~Italian Proverb
People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do. ~Lewis Cass
I wonder how many ways I'll have to hear it before I get it?
