Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.’ That is why dogs make such a hit. They are so glad to see us that they almost jump out of their skins. So, naturally, we are glad to see them.
Ideas without action are worthless.
It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.
Willing is not enough, we must do.
Your talk talks and your walk talks, but your walk talks louder than your talk talks.

A little less conversation, a little more action please.
What we do is more important than what we say or what we say we believe.
Win through your actions, never through argument.

The older I get the less I listen to what people say and the more I look at what they do.
