Do actions speak louder than words?

[MrDawn]

Do you think actions speak louder than words, or words louder than actions?

Which one and why?

Absolutely "actions speak louder than words"!

If you say, for instance, "Oh sure, I'll go ahead and do that!" Then neglect doing "that" to watch a movie......then you're a flake=empty words.

 

[Nebulous]

Actions speak louder for sure.

Words are just words.

For evidence you have to look no further then the politicians.

The concept is even Biblical.

The passage from James 2 says:

18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.

Actions speak louder than words that's for sure can be even something small sometimes ..
if you promise something always good to keep this promise , and i know there will be time that can not, but as long as you say it early if something change it is ok then.

Yes, actions always speak louder. I've let people down with both, words are words, actions can and do hurt (or heal).

100%

I "judge" based on actions. I don't believe words if the actions aren't backing it up. I've had so many empty promises made to me I honestly have a hard time believing anyone by only their words.

 

[Eden]

Always.

 

[FerryFox]

Of course actions speak louder than words. I've never heard of torture with words

You can show a person better than you can tell them, so yeah, actions speak louder than words. You see what people really do in that case.
