Expansion of Idea

“ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS”
This is an age old proverb with a deep hidden meaning inside. To say something and to do something are two different things here. People often do not do what they say. Actions carry more meaning and importance than what a person says. People are recognized more for the things that they do rather than the words that they utter.

 

“SPEECH IS SILVER & SILENCE IS GOLDEN”
It is a fact that when we speak, others become silent and when others speak, we become silent. No doubt, speech is Silver. But most of the time silence plays a very golden role. It lends grandeur and charm to human lives. Silence is the sleep that nourishes wisdom.
