“Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes ”
— Emily Dickinson
Simplified Meaning:
What you do shows who you really are, more than what you think or feel inside. For example, if you believe in kindness but act mean to others, your actions tell the real story. Imagine someone who talks about the importance of charity but never helps anyone in need; their behavior reveals the truth about them. Actions speak louder than words because people can only see what you do, not what you think. To truly show who you are, focus on what you actually do every day. This means if you care about honesty, make sure you always tell the truth and do honest things, rather than just thinking about being honest.
