A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on.

Summary

This quote reflects the idea that a verbal agreement or promise has no legal value or enforceability and is contrasted with a written contract that provides tangible evidence. It emphasizes the importance of having agreements in writing to ensure credibility and avoid potential misunderstandings or disputes. While spoken words can hold some weight as a moral obligation, they lack the same level of certainty and proof as a written agreement.
