Summary

This quote suggests that actions speak louder than words or intentions. It highlights the idea that the outcome or result of an action is what truly matters, rather than the identity or intentions of the person performing the action. The "doer" is portrayed as insignificant, implying that it is the action itself that holds significance and carries all the weight. In essence, this quote emphasizes the importance of focusing on the tangible effects and consequences of one's actions, rather than getting caught up in personal narratives or motivations.
